    Ali Baba and sixty thieves

    ibnuaboo Monday, 20 April 2015 09:40 PM

    Even if MR is former president he is now a citizen of Srilanka who should under go any questioning ,investigation for clearing any accusation like other normal people. Despite these sixty signed parlimentarians demanding for no legal action againstMR ,he must come forward to clear the things against him or otherwise something wrong somewhere

    jay Monday, 20 April 2015 08:37 PM

    Put Mr and 60 thieves behind bars.now its very clear who the robbers are!president sirisena its your duty to purge the country of these crooks! You have been voted into power for this,

    Dan Monday, 20 April 2015 08:26 PM

    Ungrateful idiots....think of what that person has done to you and your children which are real...rather than just believe gossip from politicians and ridicule a person who has done 80% good and 20% bad.....

    mithra Monday, 20 April 2015 08:14 PM

    MR is gradually changing his strategies to form kind of Mafia against Govt. by employing various tactics with the help of his followers. He seems to imitate Al Capone.

    Yes perera u r correct. bcz all r guilty try fear. via DM Android App

    pokirisa Monday, 20 April 2015 06:07 PM

    Yakasi Monday, 20 April 2015 06:06 PM

    First prove you have brain by writing: DO ANY OF THESE....

    ALI BABAS ORIGINAL FORTY THIEVES HAS NOW BECOME SIXTY!

    NK Monday, 20 April 2015 05:51 PM

    @shan, Does that give them the right to clean out our country of every cent?

    Yuri Monday, 20 April 2015 05:24 PM

    its not MR regime. just to lock up people

    shan Monday, 20 April 2015 05:13 PM

    ruined it ? So you prefer the country with the 30 years of terrororism ? Without the highways and the stinking water canals in Colombo ?

    C. Wijeratne Monday, 20 April 2015 03:33 PM

    Does any of these guys have a little bit of brain to realise its up to him to prove his innocence by attending the meeting. Perhaps Under him they too were above the law.

    Bala Monday, 20 April 2015 05:09 PM

    That was in MR days - now you question and establish prima facie case and then to custody if case strong for prosecution.

    Santha Monday, 20 April 2015 05:01 PM

    Looks like "signs of fear" is emerging for envisaged fate of these theives - "Bhoomithel Gagaththu Gerandi Wage Dangalanawa!"

    Yehiya Monday, 20 April 2015 04:57 PM

    Its shows lot of corrupt are in house

    Maryse Monday, 20 April 2015 04:53 PM

    Ayyo, so fearful that all will be revealed.

    Nesan Monday, 20 April 2015 04:48 PM

    I am delighted to see your comments. MR has a habit not to accept any enquiry. MR should attend and prove his innocence and he should do the same on war crimes too.If anyone feels he or she has nothing to worry should attend any enquiry.

    Premalal Monday, 20 April 2015 04:44 PM

    So what do you say now Mr . President was MR corrupt or clean?

    rajitha Monday, 20 April 2015 04:30 PM

    No no.. all such people jumped ship into yahapalanaya and got ministerial posts.

    Fassey Monday, 20 April 2015 04:28 PM

    Trying hard to defend Ali Baba.

    Kamani Monday, 20 April 2015 04:28 PM

    No wonder the 60 thieves want the Ali Baba to go Scot free. They are themselves beneficiaries of loot.

    Gamini Monday, 20 April 2015 04:26 PM

    Crooks got excited as next turn to them

    saman Monday, 20 April 2015 04:19 PM

    THESE LOSERS RUINED OUR BEAUTIFUL COUNTRY!

    dilip Monday, 20 April 2015 04:14 PM

    This is just a harresing game by My3 and the clan. If you have proof then take any one in to custody

    Arian Perera Monday, 20 April 2015 03:43 PM

    Why? All the excitement. There is nothing to worry about if he has not done any wrong. Anyhow, it should be remembered that all men are equal before the eyes of Justice.

    Krisnan Monday, 20 April 2015 03:33 PM

    All robbers, ethanol kings, drugs kings and corrupted bunch can be identified by those signatures
