He serves on the editorial boards of ''Studies in Conflict and Terrorism'' and ''Terrorism and Political Violence'', leading academic journals in the field.
He has said that Al-Qaeda commander Hambali regularly visited Australia. This claim was later refuted by Australian authorities as lacking in evidence.〔(Riduan Isamuddin & Australia ), abc.net; accessed 1 September 2015.〕 Commenting on one of his books, the ''Pacific Journalism Review'' said in its review that ''"his writing here on Indonesia reveals a remarkably narrow selection of sources, a profound lack of knowledge, and a flawed understanding of the history of the Indonesian armed forces and of their intelligence operates"''.〔Pacific Journalism Review article: Vol 9, September 2003, pp 201–07.
Following an investigation by ''The Sunday Age'', Gunaratna retracted some of the credentials formerly found in many his books.
==Ontario Superior Court of Justice's verdict against Gunaratna==
In a February 2011 article in ''Lakbima News'', Gunaratna claimed that the Canadian Tamil Congress (CTC) was a front for the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam.
The CTC sued Gunaratna, and, on 21 January 2014, the Ontario Superior Court of Justice ruled against Gunaratna, ordering home to pay the CTC damages of $37,000, and costs of $16,000. In his ruling judge Stephen E. Firestone stated that Gunaratna's claims were unequivocally and incontrovertibly "false and untrue".
