The Janatha Vimukthi Peramuna (JVP) today described, the use of a vehicle belonging to MP Hirunika Premachandra to abduct a youth, as a transition from the white van culture to a black defender vehicle culture.

JVP Propaganda Secretary Vijitha Herath told a media briefing that this kind of drama was totally unwarranted.

However, he said the issue was not with Ms.Premachandra but with the political culture introduced by the previous regime.

“The political culture introduced by the previous regime is being followed by the present government as well" Mr. Herath said. (Yohan Perera)

    no matter who is in the power, these uncivilized monkey culture will never go away from srilanka.

    what about political culture introduced by JVP in 88/89

    As pointed out this is a new trend of the previous culture, it is still dangerous, only change is the type of vehicle and thugs claiming they are from STF.

    This is all bullshit. We poor people are suffering. Vehicle is now only a dream for us. Economic environment is highly volatile in Sri Lanka. No investor will invest with that risk. Where are we heading is this what we expected? President do not act as a president he is like a dummy.

    At least be happy these are not KH or KX seiris numbers or with no plates at all. It can be anyone who does even without state patronage like in the past.

    This could end well for the government if they could somehow bring justice without top level interference. and these should be nipped in the bud

    Yahapala Wednesday, 23 December 2015 03:14 PM

    Fool!!, people change the previous regime with your backing to stop those

    Lalith Wednesday, 23 December 2015 04:34 PM

    JVP can not point finger to others. They use similar tactic in the past. JVP Student union is famous for this.
