All fart and no shit. So now we need to find out who abducted this poor lady. I think her employer needs to take action against the white van brigade.

obviously you have not read the papers or totally ignorant. if not you are blind as a bat. Either way, your comment is not important. Our national identity is much more important than your stupid rhetoric.

There are enough mentally restarted people around Given bailout doesn’t mean she is innocent

Hope they will stop her leaving the country until the court case is finished and she is found guilty of lying and bringing the country into disrepute. This should be a lesson to others too.

This proves there is no influence on this case by government. But need to thoroughly investigate this further.

To end the case, the Swiss should give her Swiss citizenship and a diplomatic passport. Because contrary to US citizenship, Sri Lankan citizenship automatically finishes if one accept another. Gota can confirm this because he still hasn't been released from US citizenship by the US State Department.
