mulleriyawa was not a tragedy. it was a criminal activity carried out by politicians and their supporters including this one who has selective amnesia

Sanjay Karuna Wednesday, 19 June 2013 08:42 AM

If i don't obey the traffic laws in this country i am produced in courts and fined, but SL is now a country with a suspected murderer in Parliament.

firefox Wednesday, 19 June 2013 08:29 AM

How do the MP's feel about the man who have killed one of their own MP?

Police murder suspects interdicted. Parliament murder suspect in Parliament. That is five star democracy in Sri lanka.

Maza Wednesday, 19 June 2013 08:53 AM

The suspect had been granted leave! But he should have been suspended during this period.This is the political joke..

Good Luck sir. Hope you have the blessings to serve all of us.

Ravi Wednesday, 19 June 2013 10:54 AM

This guy was never well enough to attend a court hearing for murder but well enough to enjoy the 5 star diet and comforts of parliament .He probably got a new brain transplant. Makes you sick.

Rahmathullah M. H. Wednesday, 19 June 2013 10:54 AM

MR & Co can never answer why they still support this type of thugs.

Bandara Manik Wednesday, 19 June 2013 11:02 AM

What a joke, by the way it is not a tragedy according the "spin doctor". It is murder and mayhem during day light.

Minister Wednesday, 19 June 2013 11:03 AM

Did his able lawyer also accompany him with a POP skull for the debate in the parliament?
