And also, 4 Singalese in the last. So it is very clear media's in Sri Lanka. Always try to show any muslim wrong doers by religion if it is Sinhalese it purposely try to hide the religion.

Christians never noted by religion ever, not only in Sri lanka all over the world.

These are the people who painted a bad (& wrong) image of SL. They must be fined and money chanelled to welfare of the poor including Tamil community.
