Dear Dave,
Do you think SF's case is being heard in a kangaroo court to convict him of charges which are not filed. You seem to be day dreaming.0 0
Monday, 19 April 2010 10:18 AM
90,000 people honestly voted for him. It is a force to count plus many more island wide votes up to 1 million at least. he can do a good job as a MP for the country and should be allowed to speak for his 90,000 people from his parliament seat.

DO NOT THINK LIKE A FOOL. A WAR HERO SUBJECTED TO THIS KIND OF ATTROCITIES IS HAPPENING ONLY IN SRI LANKA.
MR AND BROTHERS WANTS TO RANSACK THE COUNTRY OF WEALTH AND DO NOT ALLOW ANY BODY TO COME UP BY ABOLISHING DEMOCRACY AND ACTIVATING DICTATORSHIP. STANLEY0 0

Pls correct me if I'm wrong. As per my understanding they stopped the court martial awaiting Court of Appeal judgment to be given on 03rd May. So how come Military continues with the court martial before that. Isn't it against the order given by Courts.

Dave...All the people in this country know whats happening and why SF is being remanded. SF is the real hero....He fought as a hero face to face to release this country from terrorists. Suspicion does not mean that one is guilty.
In srilanka ppl get arrested under suspicion..if it is in US then think abt what would have happened.0 0

Let him take his seat at parliament, as it is the wish of the people. As a member of a minority party, how much of a threat could he really be?

dave, have you gone mad or something,
What betrayel did he do to the country? is it by winning the war?
What betrayal did he do to the team? is it admitting & telling how much innocent soldiers sacrifice their flesh, blood & youth to this bloody war?
What betrayel did he do to the leader? it it wrong to come to politics in a democratic country?
Please Do Not throw the Stones to Others if You Know You are Not Perfect either. REMEMBER WE ALL ARE HUMANS0 0

SK, you are the one who needs to know the facts.
SF was the head of Army, but the war was a coordinaed effort. If not for Air Force, the war is still raging on. Navy destroyed and blocked/captured every single weapons ship sailed our way since 2008. It was a cordinated war and at the top was Gotabhaya and MR. SF was in the army for 40 years but the war was on for 30 of them, what did he do? Only determined MR became the president, he got the team and finished it up. SF was only a part of that team. 40 million to less than 100 thousand in two montsh shows that unlike you, others understand what really happened.0 0

It is true that MR gave good leadership. But, please understand that it was the Army which did the biggest damage to the enemy, by their ground strategies, and the General too, gave good leadership.

True War heroes are only seen & respected by the people. Those who spread venom & revenge due to excessive power hunger no longer will be respected by the people & soon discarded, just like 4 million votes diminishing to a mere 98,000 in just 2 months, itself maybe a world record. how people reject budding politicians with ulterior motives.

Law takes it's course. Justice should not only be done but must also be seen to be done. Attending parliament is a secondary issue. This can wait.

As long as the conviction comes before the 1st sitting of parliament, justice will be done. Of course then he can spend all his monies, time & energy at the Appeal's courts & SC to get better justice, by then 6 years will be over.

They will find a way to continue this show-piece drama until the day of opening of Parlliament just to prevent him from attending Parliament. or else they will find him guilty before that to make him ineligible to function as a MP. The cruel intentions of the government are crystal clear now.

dave, He is in custody not because he betrayed country, team or leader, it is mainly because he contested for Presidential Election.

good you remember these.
also don't forget
he won the war that no one else could
he sacrificed his family and personal life for the country
you dont have to be with the leader if you think the leader is wrong.0 0

What nonsence. he almost gave his life for the country.
He made the country proud.0 0
Monday, 19 April 2010 09:20 AM
its no use convicting him and blocking him as if he is convicted, then he can file an appeal the very same day or the next day and when an appeal if filed, the judgment given is with-held, hence he can go to parliament until the appeal case if finished...
wonder if the govt lawyers dont know about this....0 0
