He said he was not afraid of any experts’ panel appointed by United  Nations Secretary General Ban Ki Moon to advise him on allegations of  human rights violations during the war. “As the then army commander I can candidly say the war was waged  according to international covenants and conventions. I appear for the  military in this case,” General Fonseka said. He said Sri Lanka should not be afraid to face any such panel. General  Fonseka said his son-in-law Danuna Tillakaratne would surrender to court  if and when the rule of law is upheld here and the government stops  hounding members of his family. He said this in response to Minister Wimal Weerawansa saying that Gen.  Fonseka should hand over his son-in-law to court. General Fonseka also  said no father-in-law was under obligation to hand over his son-in-law  to courts. Dailymirror</blockquote>
