Looks the drugs are all over Srilanka! No wonder the younger generations are not living up to their true potential. A game of politics to crush the younger generation and their talents. We need capital punishment like Indonesia for all involved in drugs. MS , move fast to eradicate drug peddlers to save the future of Srilanka.
