    The beginning itself sounds unsatisfactory. Sooner, than later this would be forgotten.

    Haris Friday, 09 October 2015 12:28 PM

    What about Richard Soyza? Why no one talk about his death.

    saman Friday, 09 October 2015 09:58 AM

    Asking the public is OK. But ask also Mervin, Sajin Vaas and General Fonseka.

    Lasantha Wickramsingha is a great writer and he has readers across the globe and he did not draw ethnic line in his writing. He enjoyed supports from all communities in Sri Lanka. Anyone who is behind his murder is a cruel person.

    Please don’t torture the public, if you have guts please arrest the main culprit who ordered to kill. You only have guts to arrest and torture innocent students.

    Goliwog Thursday, 08 October 2015 08:20 PM

    We all know as to who is responsible for this killing except the police.

    CitizenPerera Thursday, 08 October 2015 08:19 PM

    What a joke? CID should look at Satellite images and CCTV footage that does OT EXIST. That will help them solve this case. or send sleuths to Maldives to investigate "pre planed explosions".
