Sorry sir, these is the cream of our society, It is not easy to get entrance into a Sri Lanka university. To me it sound like sour grapes.

How many people were killed by policemen in the past days. But those scenes were covered by the police with some stories. It will be good from the public and students if the same action is taken to teach a good lesson.
