Surrendered people dying one by one
We are so merciless . We are not human being
We take revenge. We do not forgive each other
We talk more but do less, We are going towards disaster.
Really shame on people who are responsible for these deaths

You people shed tears on TERRORISTS, but no one shed tears now about those innocent civilians killed by LTTE. SHAME ON YOU>

What a mentality!

God bless you KAF!!!

Magnanimity in victory will bring out the beauty of humanity.

Remember that many hardcore terrorist have been eliminated and these detainees were forcefully recruited by the LTTE.

They don't deserved to dye this way!!!

People like KAF are main reason for rascist attitude in SRI LANKA NOW.....

Well said sir!!

The way is open to international monitors. Defence must need achange. Need a good administrative secretary.

Oh no! the diaspora will go to town now. Only way to be vindicated is to investigate and punish whoever is responsible.

-12+48 # Telemachus 2012-08-08 21:46

So, your worry is not about the death of a human being but that the diaspora will take to the streets?!

-36+9 # Nodrog 2012-08-09 06:05

Why should we be concerned about the death of a criminal? Do they give a crap before they commit crimes against us? Stop being a hypocrite!

-6+44 # buffaloa citizen 2012-08-09 09:21

Yes the diaspora will go to town, because we sinhalese created them in 1956, 1977 and 1983 riots. Investigation will be pseudo, by the sinhalese for the sinhalese and in favor of the sinhalese. We even failed to nab one culprit in the 1983 riots, so what more.

of course, thats the only way they can remain abroad as 2nd class citizens by highlighting incidents such as this to exaggerate the degree of their so-called 'safety' living in SL.

-22+4 # Nodrog 2012-08-09 10:36

Why keep the fires of communal hatred burning by still living in the past? Don't generalize by blaming all Sinhalese as only a small section were involved, we do not classify all Tamils as Tigers?

The UNHRC, please take note.

These tamil prisoners were peacefully protesting by refusing food for their illegal imprisonment without presenting them to a court of law for the past many years. The State stage managed this incident by publicising that these barely able to walk and hungry prisoners had taken the jailors captive.

-76+23 # SL 2012-08-08 19:56

Is taking prison guards hostage a way of peaceful protest? Your name says all.

-9+3 # Nodrog 2012-08-09 15:35

What crap. And you suppose the guard walked away peacefully with the 'innocent' prisoners when they took him captive? You are a buffaloa so stop talking like a frog in the well.

First they came for the Jews and I did not speak out because I was not a Jew.

Then they came for the Communists and I did not speak out because I was not a Communist.

Then they came for the trade unionists and I did not speak out because I was not a trade unionist.

Then they came for me and there was no one left to speak out for me

Dear fellow citizens of Mother Lanka speak now or forever hold your peace

Rapes, Murders and impunity....

It has already come to the rest of us BUT we know how to shut our eyes, ears and mouths.

God bless mother Lanka.

On one side we have the "Reconstruction, Resettlement, Rehabilitation, Reintegration and Reconciliation (5Rs)" conference. One the other side we have the death of a prisnoer. Who is trying to fool who. Today the world is open, where news travel fast and cheap that to the Internet.

Sad. Ultimately another Sri Lanakan.

-72+10 # silva 2012-08-08 20:32

-7+63 # Raj 2012-08-08 21:22

What a rascist attitude

-2+29 # Sad Sri Lankan 2012-08-09 09:50

Mr. Silva, I regret telling you this. But you are a disgrace to the country.

-4+53 # Minister 2012-08-08 22:24

Tamil or Sinhala he was yet another son of Mother Lanka!

-4+3 # Jagath Leanage 2012-08-09 05:47

mmmmmm.....!

-6+29 # Jagath Leanage 2012-08-09 05:51

This is one of the reasons, why some Tamils migrate illegaly to Australia.

-19+3 # Rosh 2012-08-09 12:21

Then they all must go, making their eelam in aussie soil, and leave this country to others.

-2+27 # nadarajah 2012-08-09 06:31

i feel very sad for the tamil prisioners who have to languish in jails and also get killed in the process .hope the god will punish the individuals who were responsible for the two deaths

-3+28 # Calistus Jayatilleke 2012-08-09 08:13

Wonder if these incidents of custodial deaths have been included in the recently submitted Human Rights report to the UN!

-0+17 # CHANDRAPALA 2012-08-09 08:30

Sure, the court will issue an injunction order to the family members of the dead prisoner once again because of the national security. This is very ridiculous.

-3+28 # CHANDRAPALA 2012-08-09 08:48

The report will say that it is a natural death.

-2+23 # Rahumathullah Husain 2012-08-09 10:01

Very good improvement in human rights record. GL should include this incident in his report to the UN!

-0+17 # jacoob 2012-08-09 12:14

end of the day all is Banana Business!

-19+3 # Dalu Banda 2012-08-09 12:36

Every body should understand that prison riots means death for several, any ware in the world even in US.
