The Chief Incumbent of the Nagadeepa Viharaya in Jaffna yesterday said he believed the order for the recent eviction of Tamils from Colombo might have come from `some one at the top` and could not have originated at police level.
Ven Brahmanawatte Sivali Thera told journalists though religious leaders had been keeping quiet for the past 25 years allowing the war to escalate now it was time for them to act to prevent further destruction.
He urged the political leadership of this country to work towards a peaceful solution to the national issue.
