Hats off to Children & Women's bureau..... Great work guys. I understand how much of pressure you would have had and you would anticipate in arresting this man.

This is not the first & it is not going to be the last case either. Plenty of such cases might have un-surfaced before. But something is better than nothing. I sincerely wish you luck for the sake of women and children in Sri Lanka

Time to bring in mandatory castration as a punishment for rapists.

Farzan Wednesday, 04 July 2012 07:18 AM

Should be banned from politics for life time as we can not expect social services from these kind of rapists.

shiranee Fernando Wednesday, 04 July 2012 07:17 AM

Even small children are not safe from these political maniacs. Our future seems to be very bleak with this no law and order situation.
