A killing spree of street beggars continued today with the discovery of a body of a beggar near the Gangaramaya Temple filling station. The Colombo Judicial Medical Officer was directed to submit to Court the post mortem examination report on the body of the beggar.The Slave Island police told Colombo Fort Magistrate Lanka Jayaratne that they had found the dead body suspected to be that of a beggar with severe injuries to the head. The police had also found a wheel chair which they believed might have been used by the man.
The police said on May 14, they had recovered the bodies of two beggars, at Kollupitiya and Slave Island, also with serious head injuries. (LS)

Whoever is responsible for these killings, is insane, and should be put behind bars!

robbing innocent beggers? if so, these robbers should be some of the worst human beings in the world.

Typical Sri Lankans, Some body with a sick mind kills helpless beggers in the city, some accuse the govt, some question Buddhist values, others point out that 50000 innocents were killed in the last year. As we see the only people who are not guilty are Christians, Tamils or Muslims !

Is someone EXTREME-ly serious about cleaning up the country.
Tuesday, 15 June 2010 04:38 PM
begging is an organised underworld lucarative business, must be infighting between two factions.
Tuesday, 15 June 2010 04:45 PM
OMG I'm going to hide !.
Tuesday, 15 June 2010 04:47 PM
Are we proud to be Sri Lankans??
Tuesday, 15 June 2010 05:12 PM
Oh…..What sort of country is this? Begging and killing both shameless, Government must take necessary action to prevent all these.
Tuesday, 15 June 2010 05:18 PM
i remember one incident in wellawatta also...
Tuesday, 15 June 2010 05:41 PM
How on earth can people be so cruel? I mean, there must be a maniac on lose or else who would kill people, just because they are helpless beggars? This would really need some investigation ...

Slave Island Police must be held responsible. If murder takes place in a High Security Zone few yards away from Temple Trees, then what would be the security of the ordinary residents in this area as well as the rest of the Country. This begger often frequents the Commercial Shed. He hangs around the vicinity. If this was allowed to happen, it means the Slave Island Police have let murderers and underworld gangs conduct themselves as they wish. Hon. Secretary of Defense must seriously attend to this action and take immediate action to overhaul the Slave Island Police and discipline the present officers.

Stepping towards 'asiyawe ascharyaya' (miracle of Asia) with 'begger-less' streets?

You cannot eliminate poverty by killing beggars!

Obviously a Druggie! The Drug Lords should be hanged.

If killing of beggars is a policy in Sri Lanka then 90% of the population has to wiped out

There is a possibility that this an organized crime. Check the internal organs. Some gang must be on killing spree of the beggers to take the kidneys etc. to sell at high prices to overseas patients.
Wednesday, 16 June 2010 02:20 AM
Not a good sign.
Wednesday, 16 June 2010 02:49 AM

Wednesday, 16 June 2010 04:30 AM

Wednesday, 16 June 2010 04:37 AM

Arent beggars human beings anymore in this land of ours?
Tuesday, 15 June 2010 12:02 PM
Most of us are almost beggars. We had better be careful.
Tuesday, 15 June 2010 12:02 PM
Now beggars had to beg for their lives instead of money & food.
Tuesday, 15 June 2010 12:27 PM

Seems the value of a human being is degraded than a dog. where those values has gone? Impose the death penalty to these murderers. Other than this no way out for these crimes.
Tuesday, 15 June 2010 01:19 PM

Tuesday, 15 June 2010 01:29 PM
Beggar murder started with the media revealing their income.
Tuesday, 15 June 2010 01:31 PM
No wonder the country is facing bad omens/bad luck
Please show some respect for the human man kind.
last 2 yeras alone 50,000 innocents were killed because of the war. Now all the street beggers are been killed.
Beggers you find all over the world but its the responsibility of the Local council to see there needs .
its a utter shame for the country/GovtTuesday, 15 June 2010 01:40 PM
The beggers union should come out and condem these brutality.....
Tuesday, 15 June 2010 01:43 PM
