    Typical UNP they are always after revenge if not for MS they would have been a sleeping bunch even today

    Henry Wednesday, 14 January 2015 11:25 AM

    Report states ""calls from one number"" , so the number is known and the service provider could track the culprit. The caller should be given the desired punishment by Law.

    Labby Wednesday, 14 January 2015 11:16 AM

    He does not need to resign from politics, in April he will be voted out.. all of them in fact.

    Maya Wednesday, 14 January 2015 11:16 AM
