Former President - Chandrika Bandaranaike Kumaratunga has refuted claims that her son - Vimukthi Kumaratunga, is going to enter politics.
In a statement posted on her Facebook page, Ms. Kumaratunga said, "He has no need nor desire to enter politics and I have no intention of making him inherit the burden and sacrifices made by the Bandaranaikes for politics."
"I would also like to note that although he loves our country very much, the only way to serve the country is not by entering politics," she adds.
"Therefore, I strongly urge the public not to fall for such false claims," she concludes.
