Whether it is Range's son or Keheliya's son, law is law unlike those days. Thats the difference.

It seems the next generations of our politicians do not abide by the laws of the country! Mervyn Silva's, Rambukwella's, Sirisena's ,Mahinda Rajapaksa's, are so far known to have been at the wrong end of the law!
