Sarath Fonseka told media on Monday that he is against the military deployment to control protests in the country, the BBC reported.
"In civilised countries one would not replace the police with the army to control protests," Mr Fonseka said.
The government that attempted to "steal" private sector workers funds, Mr Fonseka said, is currently planning to "steal" funds sent by Sri Lankans abroad.
“I urge the army not to turn the guns used against terrorists towards civilians."
General Fonseka made these comments on his way back to prison from a hearing in courts.
