We should not mentally torture elders and feebles. I wonder whether Sri-Lanka is a Buddhist country.

Grandson or no grandson, if you harbour a fugetive/criminal, the law says you have to pay the price. The law of the land should apply to everybody and not just subject to the whims and fancies of you stupid lot. If you commit a criminal offence, you must suffer the consequences...

Typical Hindi movie scene. Arrest the mother to get at the son. What a way to go, keep it up. You can now can be compared to the other beasts with similar way of thinking & doing the same in the world. When retribution comes your way, please do not think of god at that time

our CID is the BEST in the world , that is only for SF's case. but when it comes to Sakivithi's case the CID is the worst in the world. may be some BIG shots wanted to close Sakvithi's case.

Didn't CID say they had Dhanuna's IP and it was a sure shot? Now they are going after IPs of contacted people. What a joke.

POOR OLD LADY!!! THE AGED SHOULD BE RESPECTED. WHATEVER SAID ABOUT THE SO CALLED DHANUNA, A GRANDMOTHER IS A GRANDMOTHER AND THE LOVE GRANDMOTHERS HAVE FOR THEIR GRANDCHILDREN IS UNIVERSAL. EVEN IF THEY BE THE WORST CRIMINAL THIS LOVE CANNOT BE ERADICATED AT ANY COST. THIS IS ONLY HUMAN.

SO WHY NOT LEAVE HER ALONE, SHE DID HER BOUNDEN DUTY AND ANY RIGHT THINKING PERSON SHOULD APPRECIATE THAT.

WHAT A SORRY STATE OUR BEAUTIFUL MOTHERLANKA, NEXT IT MIGHT BE A PIG, OR THE TOM CAT OR A PARIAH DOG THAT DHANUNA ADORED.

This is vengence and haressment. Why dont they just investigate and bring to books all the crooks, frauds, murders, drug dealers, thugs, ( now in Parliament) before the law. What kind of governance is this. It seems to getting worse day by day.

Donkeys ! The grandmother provided accommodation to her Grandson. He may be absconding suspect but for her it is her Grandson. It is useless to tell you goons who do not know what is parental affection. EVen a deserter, if the harbor is given by the wife or parents, there is no charge against them. The first time in the country to take revenge from a grandmother.

Unbelievable!! What has this country become. If my grandson/daughter comes to me for help would I say no?! She wouldn't even have known at the time that there were issues. Rubbish government!

Shame on CID to file a case against an old lady (grand mother of Dhanuna). How can a grandmother or a grandfather call the police & say Quote! Help Police, my grandson is here, please arrest him! Unquote. Maybe, she would have told the grandson, "Putha oya gihin bara denne Policiyata." and may have left.
