Two more members of the robber gang that killed two policemen were killed during a clash with the Army and the Police in Mirigama today. Four suspects have died after confrontations with the police so far, police spokesman Prishantha Jayakody told Daily Mirror online.

Seven suspects are believed have been involved in the robbery and shoot out which killed two policemen in Warakapola. The police are carrying out search operations in a forest area in Mirigama for the remaining three suspects. (Daily Mirror online)

That's the difference between liquid cash and gold!.

Taking the Revenge in the name of Encounter, similar to the operations in our neighboring country but innocent common man is always been the soft target!!!

Yes you are correct. I am wondering why Sri Lankans support killing Criminals in pre planed encounters and against implementing Capitol punishment after proper investigation.

lankaputha Monday, 13 December 2010 06:23 AM

Asking again, why can't you find who robbed the 70 million at Peliyagoda., in the same way?

mohamed asfar Monday, 13 December 2010 06:10 AM

if the death penalty is alive these criminals would have thought twice before harm somebody.

Tom And Jerry Monday, 13 December 2010 06:06 AM

There are 225 more inside the parliament

dilan Monday, 13 December 2010 06:02 AM

Angel Monday, 13 December 2010 05:42 AM

the whole scenario will be different if they agree to share the loot...

dhanushka Monday, 13 December 2010 04:07 AM

Police theater remaining 3 just now and one more to be treat

Chamila Monday, 13 December 2010 03:22 AM

I wish those killed were real criminals and not those who went into forest for fire woods....

That would have become a molten lump and how to identify the stolen or not property?

Lakmikanth Sunday, 12 December 2010 08:40 PM

Well done. Excellent lesson for others too.

Nimal Sunday, 12 December 2010 07:33 PM

good job of Police in the life time

Mushi Sunday, 12 December 2010 11:36 AM

Well done Army! Keep going!!!

sunilsenerath Sunday, 12 December 2010 05:26 PM

Is that the law in SriLanka? When police officers are affected they themselves ask the case and punish. Srilanka can easily become excel in Asia!

Faqi Sunday, 12 December 2010 04:48 PM

The question is did they recover the stolen items or money?

A Harsh Sunday, 12 December 2010 03:53 PM

This will be a very good lesson. Other polce officers and OIC's please make note of it. No robber, burgler or rapists should be spared. Very soon our country will be more safer nation.

Yoda Sunday, 12 December 2010 03:51 PM

Absolutely correct.

dan Sunday, 12 December 2010 03:15 PM

Robbing banks, Jewelery shops will be suicide.....

THOMAS Sunday, 12 December 2010 02:31 PM

Finish off these ANTI SOCIAL ELEMENTS, as what you did to
the LTTE

Ranjith Sunday, 12 December 2010 02:22 PM

Get the other three as well. If you kill police officers while robbing you will get it in return. If not, you can be in the parliament.

AF Sunday, 12 December 2010 02:05 PM

Well done police.. let the criminals be aware the reparations if they conflict with police. This looks like SL police is also follwing the NYPD methods.

horapolice Sunday, 12 December 2010 01:38 PM

As long as these are the culprits - it's ok - but if they are not??? I guess that's why we have courts to verify this....but for some police the law does not apply

mahan Sunday, 12 December 2010 01:20 PM

Why police take swift actions against these incidents?
Can't they adopt the same approach to all other public cases?

Cobra Sunday, 12 December 2010 01:03 PM

Good show. A few more successes like this will send a strong message to would be hoods,criminals and murderers.And they'd think twice!

Ossan Salam - Doha Sunday, 12 December 2010 12:43 PM

This is the way our people wants... act rapidly to chase criminals and catch them alive or dead....hats off for our brave soldiers and the police officers......

tharanga Sunday, 12 December 2010 12:40 PM

apply the same procedure to others also. This is the best way to eradicate crimes in sri lanka. other wise criminals go to prison and manage their peers to do more. keep it up!

manel Sunday, 12 December 2010 12:18 PM

3 more to die and case solved

Whistleblower Sunday, 12 December 2010 11:49 AM

Don't ever think of robbing or killing Police officers. This is the message for future criminals. SOUNDS VERY LOUD & CLEAR.
