The government will investigate a group of journalists who had been on a PANOS South Asia project as transpired at the recent sittings of the Parliamentary Select Committee investigating INGOs and NGOs, Government Defence Spokesman Minister Keheliya Rambuwella said.

Addressing the weekly briefing at the Media Centre for National Security, he said that the government had enough information about their support to the LTTE.

The project promoted separatism in the country, he said adding that the government was fully aware of the details and the persons involved.

Rambukwella warned that anyone found guilty of any wrongdoing would be dealt with according to the law.
