    Have you just woken up from a coma? This incident doesn't have any unique Sri Lankan features to it, very sad but this kind of incidents have happened all over the world, ever since the man set aftoot on earth.

    Another normal trend today is also, where these parties are involved, disaster follows.

    Nodrog Monday, 20 August 2012 04:27 AM

    Kandyan....either wake up or stop acting silly! Similar things are happening to Sinhalese speaking Sri lankans too.

    This is just a family feud that went very far and ended in murder, money is very much importent than love , family and friends

    Lobo Sunday, 19 August 2012 12:29 PM

    Jena, don't show your ignorance and don't try to make every issue a Tamil one.

    Senna Sunday, 19 August 2012 12:38 PM

    These are from the Terrorist culture prevailed in the last 30 years. People must respect the spirituality , valueand live accordingly because most of the youngsters live in a wrong trtack , they don't have any respect to Elders and no values and live in a very wrong vultured society.. Current films, music , work environments so called posh highclass society are ruining these youngsters. Parents should be blamed for these. They don't know churches & temples and their values.

    Lobo Sunday, 19 August 2012 12:25 PM

    True Nalaka. Tamils seem to think they have the monopoly on being treated unfairly.

    KArunaratna Sunday, 19 August 2012 12:00 PM

    Those years demostrate the culture of cannibals sponsored by politicans. "Moda fellows" still blame LTTE for everthing

    richardson Sunday, 19 August 2012 10:36 AM

    Yes of course, Ask Wimal .W

    Fusion Sunday, 19 August 2012 08:54 AM

    That why it is called the "Miracle of Asia".

    Lobo Sunday, 19 August 2012 07:55 AM

    Why don't you ask the LTTE?

    Mala Saturday, 18 August 2012 09:24 AM

    A foreign act.

    Moda Jokiya Sunday, 19 August 2012 07:06 AM

    This is a personal dispute for sure.

    sach Sunday, 19 August 2012 04:41 AM

    this is more likely a family feud. It has nothing to do with them being tamil.

    Nalaka Sunday, 19 August 2012 03:06 AM

    why only talk and talk of what goes onn for tamils they are not the only cirizens on this earth similar issues are faced by others as well

    Jena Sunday, 19 August 2012 02:00 AM

    Tintin Sunday, 19 August 2012 01:56 AM

    Uprising of people seem imminent.

    Tintin Sunday, 19 August 2012 01:55 AM

    You mean, in present day society, it is normal for human beings to kill each other? And the reasons should not be blamed on anyone?

    Roy Saturday, 18 August 2012 02:59 PM

    These days politicians are sending their thugs in saffron uniforms. God knows, what else is going on in this country which used to be a peaceful buddhist country.
    Everything is in a shamble stock market, exchange control ,education justice and....

    kandyan Saturday, 18 August 2012 02:49 PM

    Why is this all happaning to the tamils again?? what the next drama??

    Andrew Pitugala Saturday, 18 August 2012 02:17 PM

    The normal trend today is that if the Police or the Government was involved they will either not find the culprits or find scapegoats.

    Brindley Fernando Saturday, 18 August 2012 12:19 PM

    Don't blame the Police or the Government, its the normal trend
    of today. Let us wait for more details

    Nodrog Saturday, 18 August 2012 11:03 AM

    No respect or value for human lives anymore. Is this the culture we inherited after the terrorist war?
