Trust us on war crimes probe: Rajapakse

COLOMBO: President Mahinda Rajapakse said on Saturday that Sri Lanka must be trusted to conduct its own investigation into war crimes allegations and warned against international pressure on his regime's human rights record.

"People in glass houses must not throw stones," Rajapakse said in a press conference in Colombo where he is chairing a Commonwealth summit.

The three-day gathering has been overshadowed by allegations of war crimes by his troops at the end of an ethnic war in 2009.

British Prime Minister David Cameron had earlier given Rajapakse's regime until March to come up with credible results from its own investigation into the final stages of the war or else he would lead a push for the issue to be taken up by the United Nations.

Rajapakse, however, said Sri Lanka must be allowed to complete its own investigation in its own time.

"They have to trust us," he said. "Pressure wont do anything. ... It's much better to wait rather than demand or dictate."
