ronny Saturday, 13 November 2010 06:32 PM

pillayan is not a elected chief minister by the eastern people. he is a created puppet by MR. so naturally he has the powers to do these things.

Fair N Square Saturday, 13 November 2010 06:56 PM

or "piece-fully"

Nan Saturday, 13 November 2010 08:24 PM

Telemachus Saturday, 13 November 2010 02:29 PM

ROFLMAO :-D)

Fair N Square Sunday, 14 November 2010 04:43 AM

He was not Elected but Selected ! So he thinks he can get away with all his thuggery. A day would come when he will be taken to task, Not by the Govt, but by the creator the supreme power

Musthafa Sunday, 14 November 2010 05:33 AM

Pillyan well done - keep it up!!

dan Sunday, 14 November 2010 06:05 AM

You lucky man, He did not shoot you.

koneswaransaro Sunday, 14 November 2010 06:21 AM

Mr.Pillaiyan, those days you were not a good warrior. Nowadays you are not a good politician or head of the province. Who are you? What is your future idea?

Saddam Malli Sunday, 14 November 2010 07:04 AM

More to come my friend !

beau Sunday, 14 November 2010 11:47 AM

allof todays politicans are crooks and have no wish to serve the public. they are serving themselves

chrysanthus Sunday, 14 November 2010 04:57 PM

Under the Velu he was a podiyan under the MR he is CHIEF

Muraly Monday, 15 November 2010 05:10 AM

Eastern Province Chief Minster assaulted Prabaharan. This time other way around.

Yehiya-Doha Saturday, 13 November 2010 11:35 AM

Appointing unprofessional man as chief minister & creating lot of problem among minorities.

Dheen Saturday, 13 November 2010 10:23 AM

The leopard never changes its spots and a tiger never changes its stripes. So the Chief Minister Pillayan has proved it.

Mervin Silva Saturday, 13 November 2010 10:24 AM

Does this Chef minister enjoy any immunity from law to assault people? Our Police Spokesperson is speaking like a programmed robot. Or, is he a robot cop?

Newton Perera Saturday, 13 November 2010 10:27 AM

Why didn't you react by assaulting him Sir? He probably didn't like your name 'Prabaharan'!

vimale Saturday, 13 November 2010 10:35 AM

oh, tell me one single minister who has a good record with chinthanaya and company...

Anver Saturday, 13 November 2010 11:07 AM

If you are Merv the Doc, its better for you to go there with your gang and settle this dispute 'peacefully'!

steve Saturday, 13 November 2010 11:08 AM

Pillayan is the Mervyn Silva of East!

Nesan Saturday, 13 November 2010 11:08 AM

If a central minister can tie a civil servent at a tree and assault him why not a chief minister?

Pillaiyan knows the weekness of MR and the justice system of Sri Lanka. Well done chief minister keep it up.

Regi Saturday, 13 November 2010 11:17 AM

Well said DB & Dheen, Pillayan is still a "Podiyan", means boy or child-soldier, not grown up. Thank God these fellows did not use the gun. I wonder what may be the reason for this assault.

Abdul Razeen Saturday, 13 November 2010 11:18 AM

Tell me one minister who has had a good record in the past 15 years under any government. Except maybe for Imtias Bakeer Makar and Champika Ranawaka, they are all the same.

mallie Saturday, 13 November 2010 11:33 AM

Please thank the almighty god you believe that you are able to tell the story

db Saturday, 13 November 2010 10:22 AM

old habits die hard

Holman Saturday, 13 November 2010 11:44 AM

Is he Pillayan or PULLIyan ?

NADARAJAH SETHURUPAN Saturday, 13 November 2010 11:48 AM

all are Terrorist,

Dheen Saturday, 13 November 2010 11:56 AM

He is following the foot path of our Kelaniya philosopher. Beware Karuna! You will be the next to get.

Dudley Saturday, 13 November 2010 12:15 PM

Who cares about these usual family in-fightings. Lets say all are withing the "Tiger Clan'.

Thomas Saturday, 13 November 2010 12:28 PM

He is capable of doing more than this. HE WAS A TERORIST under Velu, so what you expece of him?

michi Saturday, 13 November 2010 12:35 PM

But He still did not tie a man with a rope.

Yeti Saturday, 13 November 2010 12:48 PM

Naturally. After all Pillaiyan is the government over there in the east, isn't he?

Anselm Saturday, 13 November 2010 01:27 PM

Champika Ranawaka? You must be joking.

Above the crowd Saturday, 13 November 2010 02:24 PM

God didn't give claws to tigers not to pick their nose. Beware every body .
