Military Spokesman Major General Prasad Samarasinghe yesterday said former Army Commander General Sarath Fonseka was given the chance to use a mobile phone since yesterday on the condition that it be used to contact his two daughters only.
The Military Spokesman in response to a question raised by a journalist at a press conference at the Media Centre for National Security, said Fonseka was given this opportunity of using a mobile phone while he was in the Military custody as a privilege granted by the Army Commander but not on the orders of anybody.
Samarasinghe emphatically stated that the opportunity was restricted only to talk to his two daughters.
In response to another question, he said that there was enough ventilation at the residence where Fonseka was being held. It has a number of rooms, an office room, visiting room and a pantry.
He said it was once the official residence of the former Navy Commander.
He queried as to how one could find the ventilation inadequate after staying there for long as few weeks.

March 2010 Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon today expressed concerns about the lack of progress on political reconciliation, the treatment of internally displaced persons (IDPs) and the setting up of an accountability process in Sri Lanka since the United Nations signed a joint statement with the Government last year in the wake of the end of its civil war with separatist Tamil rebels.
Mr. Ban told reporters that he had a frank and honest exchange of views last Thursday about these subjects during a telephone conversation with President Mahinda Rajapaksa of Sri Lanka, where the runner-up candidate in January s presidential elections, General Sarath Fonseka, was subsequently arrested for alleged military offences and the parliament was dissolved.
The Secretary-General and UN High Commissioner for Human Rights Navi Pillay have both voiced concern about the situation in the island nation, and Mr. Ban said last month that the Under-Secretary-General for Political Affairs B. Lynn Pascoe will soon head to the island nation for talks with senior Government officials.
Speaking at UN Headquarters, Mr. Ban said today that he was concerned with the lack of progress of the joint statement, particularly political reconciliation, the condition of IDPs and the need for an accountability process.
