Well done Police /FCID. These thieves must be put behind bars and the keys be thrown into the jungles like what was done in another country which has no problems such as the one we are experiencing in Sri Lanka today. All the rogues are together and this has to come to a end. Enough is enough that masses have been waiting to see justice is meted out.

In other words "hospitalized ". Waiting for the deals to start rolling!
