    Practice what you preach; Action speaks louder than words.

    Days before his exam what was the student doing there with the law breakers.

    Innocent people would not have blocked roads, burn tires, vehicles, and attack police and army who maintain law and order. Brian Rane

    RajasH Saturday, 10 August 2013 09:13 AM

    it's their legitimate duty to obey orders of superiors

    Porky Pig Saturday, 10 August 2013 09:05 AM

    What made not warn the people not to protest . After all this is a Banana Republic rule by OL or below leaders.

    sobers Saturday, 10 August 2013 09:00 AM

    Show it in act, as the new broom always sweeps well.

    Iqbal Saturday, 10 August 2013 08:54 AM

    Will you take action against those who behaved beyond their legitimate duties in Weliweriya by instituting an independent inquiry?

    Poor Man Saturday, 10 August 2013 08:40 AM

    Before you warn your troops could you please tell to the public who ordered the shooting in the recent event? We all know Army would not have on their own acted the way they did. Don't try to be good to public by warning troops.

    kalu nangi Saturday, 10 August 2013 08:36 AM

    yes, no point in closing the stable doors now....Horse bolted sometime back!!

    Buddhi Saturday, 10 August 2013 08:26 AM

    After the death of a student this government is paying compensation and this is warning the soldiers. Whats the use ???

    Doliya Saturday, 10 August 2013 08:07 AM

    Too late...

    Dilip Saturday, 10 August 2013 01:31 AM

    Only it's hurt when hits South, what about Mulivaikal ?

    Brian Rane Saturday, 10 August 2013 06:55 AM

    Well done army teach a lesson to hooligans and law breakers. Learn a lesson from what is happening in Egypt.
    Blocking roads, burning vehicles is not the way to complain about bad water. There are other avenues open to solve such problems without taking law into their hands. Army and police are there to keep law and order. Temples, churches, mosques are places of worship not for the hooligans and criminals to hide. Brian, Colombo

    So now you are trying to say that they were working on their own? common man everyone knows that the orders came from the top, the top that is above you.

    Api Buuruwo Saturday, 10 August 2013 02:00 AM
