    Lanka Shatha - You recon this is a small matter! You are sadly mistaken. Particularly, those who make the legislation (Politicos) should lead by example, Assaulting anyone is a serious crime. Do you wish to be assaulted? wake up to reality man!

    Lanka Shantha Sunday, 05 August 2012 12:59 AM

    This is very very small matter. Why news media blow it as a big one?

    R.Perera Sunday, 05 August 2012 12:02 AM
