There is no judiciary system in Sri Lanka. We have kangaroo courts and water buffalo's for judges. world class criminals and thuggish dumb mutts for politicos ... [and] a dumbest group of citizens who keeps on electing the same political group to wipe out the country.

This is the only time they've got caught. Life sentence should be given so one even attempts again.
