Hirunika complains of death threat

Tuesday, 24 April 2012 05:26

Hirunika Premachandra, the daughter of slain former MP Bharatha Lakshman Premachandra lodged a complaint at the Police headquarters late last night alleging that she had received credible information that a contract has been given to kill her.

“I have received credible information that a contract has been given to kill me. This was first revealed by the media and upon further investigation, I found out that the information was in fact credible and reliable,” she said.

Hirunika said she made the complaint because there was an imminent threat to her life and because she wanted further security. “There is an imminent threat to my life. I came to the Police to make them aware of the current situation which is very unclear to all of us,” she said.

Well ! darling this is part of the deal. If you want politics without guns and bombs... you are about 30 -40 years late. Those days are gone.. take it or leave it...

All this drama as a prelude for your grand entrance to Politics?

Exactly. No body threats and no way to prove. Very easy method of gain publicity.

very soon , she will go to the presidents house and have lunch, and say , they all are very nice people. This is a clasic case of nobody trying to be somebody.

No politician who tries to become 'somebody' by force always ends up a 'nobody' at the end. George Bush, Gaddafi, Tony Blair, John Howard to name a few. They are exposed at the end and we all know them for their dirty deeds than anything else now. Take Laksman Kadirgamar, JFK, Martin Luther King.. They will always be remembered for their greatness in serving their people whist asking for nothing in return or personal gain. We dont have any politician now who isn't a drama queen. Sad but our fault!

Dear Hirunika, you are a great human being.I do not know your farther, but what I have heard about him, he was a gentleman and true and a honest politician. Take care Hirunika, Sri Lanka has become a country with no credibility.If you are a thug, drug peddler or a theif you have a place.I wish you all the best and hope those who commited the crime will brought before the justice system and proved to be guilty, then throw the book at them.

Hirunika, You are really brave to take head on the powerful regime. If you are to seek justice you have to have a civil society organisation which is actively involved in protecting rights of people to back you. You are young and cannot fight this battle alone. Tell the world what is happening.May you be protected to fight for the rights of your self and others.This death threat may be to shut up your mouth.

Hirunika, I dont know how you are but you are a leader material. certainly there are elements who would try to eliminate you any time. You better joing the right party, you have the education background, age, courage and the looks, you will shine.
