A group of monks who began a fast unto death yesterday calling for the release of General Sarath Fonseka have decided to continue their fast today despite the police removing their temporary shelter using a court order last night.

The monks who launched the fast belong to the group “Peoples Forum for Redemption of the General”. (YP)

Where were these monks when hundreeds of Buddhist monks were massacred, Sri Mahabodhi was attacked and Dalada Maligawa were bombed?. Why now for JVP?
