    I was ashamed to learn that the suspects are former army personnel

    This is the culture of Supreme people. Even CJ is not spared by political pick pockets.

    Calistus Jayatilleke Monday, 03 December 2012 09:04 AM

    Bad time for judges: even petty thieves challenge them nowadays to show the "peoples' power"

    Ranil Monday, 03 December 2012 08:55 AM

    That is why your honor you should keep these i.r.c. Buggers in jail when you get the opportunity. Hope you have now learned a lesson.
