Pure pressure on the opposition parliamentarians by the GOSL. These intimidation's and threats would intensify until they have their 2/3 in the parliament.
Soon we would be like China, One party democracy.

First of all the present IGP should be terminated from his post. He is a puppet. There's no so called democracy in this country.
malith Friday, 13 August 2010 05:27 AM
when there was a protest in front of UN office, no tear gas nothing , But protest is against government tear gas, plastic bullet and everything. Why were Wimal's supporters not arrested or remanded they when assaulted the policemen. What a law in Sri lanka ?

Democracy is at risk when demonstrations turn violent.
Concerned Friday, 13 August 2010 04:48 AM
This is a clear demonstration of the type of autocratic rule we have in our country. How can we show the world that we are a democratic nation? Haven't our rulers learnt lessons from our recent past that this method is very short lived?
M.H.Sheriff Friday, 13 August 2010 04:40 AM
Once democracy is established.

Everybody has to obey to the Sri Lankan law. But sometimes this law goes in their favour.

I like to go to the police to make a complaint regarding a financial transaction issue with another person, but i gave up that idea now to go to the police station.

When an armed officer of their own kind is assaulted, the police are keen to take legal action, but when an unarmed public officer who is unable to defend himself against abuse is assaulted, in front of the police, they turn a blind eye and have still not arrested the lunatic offender despite him roaming in the open under police protection. Is the law there to protect the innocent civilian or armed officers, thugs, goons and power hungry politicians? His excellency the president should have taken action against the policemen who watched over and encouraged the Kelaniya episode before sending the minister home. The minister is a fool to do such things and we all know it, but the police inaction and encouragement was to please foolish tendencies of a politician. It is time we all stand up against fooling of the public by the holders of power.

Good move to get rid of silly moves of JVPers
Gayan Samarasekara Friday, 13 August 2010 03:57 AM
False allegations to trap the opposition politicians. The Democracy is buried.
