Rule 1: don't copy cat
Rule 2: don't forget rule 1.

I think as a good solution for this, we must bring Saudi Islamic Rules for this.

We should blame your parents for not educating you well enough & teaching you some common sense.

Pala Thursday, 26 July 2012 12:07 PM

Exactly.... nowadays instead of preaching we see the priests involved in dirty politics, committing crimes, spreading hatred among other religions and even sexual abuses. So how can one expect the people who follow to be good citizens

Sheh Friday, 27 July 2012 07:41 AM

Rule no1: Rules are for fools!!!
Rule no2: dont forget rule 1 if you're a fool

this is disgusting! as if he thought that he stood a chance with this girl. when we have people as old as 60 going around and doing such repulsive things, how can we possibly straighten up the youths of our country???

Calistus Jayatilleke Thursday, 26 July 2012 01:13 PM

One cant blame him for being "Young at heart" Anyway, "Old Poison, Taller than the House" !

Romesh Friday, 27 July 2012 04:11 AM

oldies are deadly.. be carefull girls

Shamini Friday, 27 July 2012 09:17 AM

What is wrong in this? An old man has wooed a young girl. If she doesn't like him she is free to reject him. When men take liberties with women and rape them, this old man is only expressing his affection. Is that a crime to take him in? Absurd!

A medicine like insulin to control these beastly desires, and inject it to all such culprits.

countryMan Friday, 27 July 2012 05:08 AM

more liquor stores, easily available drugs and plenty of adult movies will guaranty a wonderful future for the pedophiles.

Raj Friday, 27 July 2012 05:20 AM

Rule 1: Sri Lanks like to copy
Rule 2: don't forget rule 1.

Suren Sarathkumara Friday, 27 July 2012 05:22 AM

Rule no1: There are rules in Sri Lanka
Rulw no2: Forget the Rule no1

Saman Friday, 27 July 2012 12:40 AM

Everyday, I hear about murder, rape, child molestation, robbery, underworld crimes, violent gangs and drug dealing. Now pedophiles roam free in SL. Some would say, all this is ok because it happens in other countries. Some even suggests crimes are actually decreasing. Ane mage Kata...What is going on in SL?

Truth hurts Friday, 27 July 2012 12:52 PM

some people cant digest the word Islam that is the reason why they oppose,,

Aney Machang Friday, 27 July 2012 06:21 AM

He should have been released without his person, so that he does not misuse them anymore!

Arun Thursday, 26 July 2012 10:46 AM

I honestly blame the priest of all religions... They are all good at making problems for other religions but don't bother about the people of their religion in their vicinity doing..

Raj Friday, 27 July 2012 01:48 PM

So you want to wait till she is raped by the old man? This what you call "prevention is better than cure" We have to safeguard our children. This prevent other from having ideas.

Siraj Thursday, 26 July 2012 10:40 AM

We Sri Lankan had the best attitute, but it is detoriating to the extend that we cant even send our little one to the road to buy even an ice cream. God alone can protect this country.

Aman Thursday, 26 July 2012 11:14 AM
