More staff from the state electronic and print media including a deputy Director of the state owned television Rupavahini, are under probe for their alleged involvement in a coup attempt by the opposition against the government, state television reported in its night news bulletin.
The news report late this evening said that these state media staff had reportedly been part of the alleged attempt which was hatched from the Cinnamon Lakeside hotel in Colombo by opposition Presidential candidate General Sarath Fonseka.
Already eight employees of the state owned Lake House newspapers have been interdicted over their involvement in this attempt and the news report this evening said several others are also expected to be taken to task including some staff members at Rupavahini.
