Illegal animal slaughter banned. what is "illegal" and what is "banned". So earlier it was illegal but not banned. What a country, what a law. It requires a court order to ban what is illegal...

We should not sacrifice the hard-earned peace because few extremist groups.
If so we should ban all animal slaughter in Srilanka (Including Cattle,Goat,Pig, Fish)

Slaughter for food okay, slaughter for religious sacrifice not, do they bury that! Stunned, the animals won't die, eh?
