| Sri Lanka's President has ordered the release of his jailed electoral rival, the former army chief Sarath Fonseka, bowing to US demands three years after the end of the island's long Tamil civil war.
The former four-star general will be able to leave prison today after formalities are completed, an official said yesterday, after the President, Mahinda Rajapaksa, marked the third anniversary of the Tamil Tigers' defeat.
