Not much long ago an Indian Tamil Cook was murdered and dumped in the sea by a Restaurant keeper and Police personnel. Now a Tamil Estate worker is murdered whilst traveling in a trishaw. Sometime back bodies of two Tamil girls were found, if I remember right in a canal. Also beaten to death by Police personnel in public view was a mentally retarded Tamil person. Are the lives of the Tamils so cheap to meet with death in this horrific manner.

this is the lawlessness that is troubling our dear country more than the LTTE ever did

Think it is just general lawlessness more than anything. The number of violent crimes keep increasing it seems...at least that's how it seems in the media.
