The Police said today the CID was investigating instances where ‘Short Message Services’ (SMS) had been sent to incite racial hatred and communal feelings. Two suspects had been arrested in this regard.

They said the Police was monitoring the circulation of such messages with the use of modern equipment and anyone who was caught circulating such a racial and communal nature would be dealt with severely by the law.

Sending an SMS is a crime, but having a big rally in Kandy and Maharaga to spread religious hatred is allowed.

Banana Republic.

Guttless police and CID. they will stand in the midst of rallies and meetings of hate and do nothing even when physical intimidation takes place.

but go after one guys sending a message on SMS.

if someone tell his friend that their is problem between two ethnic groups this is classified as a hate message but not a big public rally where threats are openly issued..

Truly miracle of Asia....

Ohh... so now we are prepared to catch sms hate mongers. But what about those who are speaking openly in public, holding rallies? We hope, this is not the new drama.

Sareek Wednesday, 27 March 2013 12:31 PM

Very good move.

Sareek Wednesday, 27 March 2013 12:30 PM

Very good move.

Suq Madique Wednesday, 27 March 2013 12:20 PM

Yes, what about rallies and processions where religious hate is instigated? Do you have the guts to arrest those responsible even if they're VIPs or will you only go after the small man?
