What can MY3 and Ranil do??? MR during his time nurtured this trend. We hope the expected Police Commission can stop this. I would blame the school teachers and the religious priests of all religions to do their part of the duty in teaching children the virtue of leading a life free of crime, hatred and dishonesty. The politicians too must take the blame for pandering criminals.

The crime rate has gone up from the beginning of this year. We need strong leaders. No country has ever raised the head with out strong leaders. So the present leaders should do it or leave it.
