Joint opposition MP Wimal Weerawansa called for the arrest of Minister Lasantha Alagiyawanna and government MP Ashu Marasinghe -- whom he accused of acquiring vehicles illegally.

“I am on remand today, while those who really acquired vehicles by illegal means are free," he said in Parliament last afternoon

"Mr. Alagiyawanna and Mr. Marasinghe should be arrested at once," he added.

Mr. Alagiyawanna, who responded later, said he had acquired three vehicles legally and had documents to prove it.

“I did not distribute vehicles to my relatives," he added. (Yohan Perera)

Weerawansa did you get a heart attack shouting like a lunatic?

TONY Thursday, 26 January 2017 08:43 AM

WIMAL. YOU SHOULD TALK OF WHAT YOU DID AND NOT WHAT OTHERS DID

Yeti Thursday, 26 January 2017 06:03 AM

Amen!

Kiris Baba Amaray Wednesday, 25 January 2017 10:39 PM

In the parliament you shouted like a lunatic. Wise people smiled and named you as a Joker.

Bubble Banda Wednesday, 25 January 2017 10:38 PM

You are too emotional Wimal, be careful you may get a heart attack.

J Palitha Wednesday, 25 January 2017 10:37 PM

The way you spoke that you will get a heart attack and collapse. I had crackers worth Rs. 15,000/- to light when you die. Still you are alive !!!!

Vijith Pieterz Wednesday, 25 January 2017 10:24 PM

Weerawansa you have been proved that you played out in billions (our money), now you cannot escape - only option worship Ranil and some times.... you will be saved.

Kadupol Jothywansa Wednesday, 25 January 2017 10:22 PM

Weeray, please fell into the legs of Ranil and save your life.

Desmond Jeromme Wednesday, 25 January 2017 10:21 PM

Wimal your end of journey in Politics will end within one week. You will be just a thief behind bars until you die. Take it from me.

German Jacob Wednesday, 25 January 2017 10:18 PM

Mrs. Rajapakshe is a close relation of Ranil, that is why he is covering the faults of Mahinda's family and trying to be a good boy. We will show him a good lesson to go home and rest if he does not take action against MR's family.

Manuel Benjamin Wednesday, 25 January 2017 10:16 PM

Ranil if you don't get Yoshitha and Basil and punish them, you will not get a single vote from UNP supporters.

Kiris Baba Amaray Wednesday, 25 January 2017 10:14 PM

Ranil, what happened to Yoshitha and Basil? Why did you send these two robbers out of the country?

Kadupol Jothywansa Wednesday, 25 January 2017 10:13 PM

Yes one main rotten rat - Weerawansa is behind bars, next Namal

ANTON Wednesday, 25 January 2017 09:35 AM

GOD MADE MAN....... AND SRILANKAN THIEVES MADE GENTLEMAN

Gratiaen Wednesday, 25 January 2017 09:45 PM

He should have spoken about the crime he alleged to have committed instead of pointing finger at others.

TONY Wednesday, 25 January 2017 08:25 PM

WHY DO THESE THIEVES NOT ADMIT WHAT THEY DID INSTEAD OF ROPING IN OTHERS

Kadiya Wednesday, 25 January 2017 08:04 PM

Don't you worry, Namal will do that when a JO Govt. comes!!!

Rohan Wednesday, 25 January 2017 05:42 PM

No two wrongs make one correct.

Dinesh Wednesday, 25 January 2017 05:25 PM

Set a thief to catch a theif

arvinda Wednesday, 25 January 2017 04:50 PM

When you catch a thief and put in the jail then, he will start divulging names of other thieves.

OMG Wednesday, 25 January 2017 04:15 PM

Once a Thief always a thief and a thief knows the other thief better.

shantha Wednesday, 25 January 2017 03:46 PM

Remand and bail for the filth but no trials?
