Six forest officers were assaulted by villagers in Manampitya, Polonnaruwa after the officers allegedly assaulted a lorry driver at a government approved sand mine, police spokesman SP Preshantha Jayakody told Daily Mirror onlineCalistus Jayatilleke Saturday, 13 November 2010 09:08 AM
The Police who were watching like zombies when Doctor Maravin tied a Samurdhi officer to a tree, have become heros in this instance as the culprits are mere forest officers. Shows how strong and law-abiding our Police force is.

Fair n Square Saturday, 13 November 2010 06:17 PM
well, the villagers did have the order from the Doc so they just beat em up n didnt tie em.
Fair n Square Saturday, 13 November 2010 06:14 PM
Isnt it the forest department that used its docs to get Karuna a DPL passport to leave to UK n served time there for impersonating !

Dont you have better news, more usefull for the public. The police and the government administration are there to look into such situation and take corrective measures.

FIGHT OFFICERS OR FOREST OFFICERS???

This is typical Sri Lanka Police Department. Dont blame them please. They cannot do anything outside the image created by them.
Calistus Jayatilleke Saturday, 13 November 2010 09:07 AM
The villagers are obviously following the lead shown by erstwhile ministers like Doctor Maravin. Its a pity that the forest officers were not tied to the trees in the forest where they belong.

Stupidity has no limits...

Clasic example of our govt. ministers ! Use their power with out any valid reason. Good, time to come public will be able to witness many more similar incidents. These incidents would'nt had happen if the countrys law is firm and genuine !!
Ranjith Saturday, 13 November 2010 07:48 AM
Malkanthi why are u jumping at the Police when the issue is between Forst offers and villagers? Yanne Koheda Malle Pol?
Anver Saturday, 13 November 2010 07:47 AM
Since it is concerning the forest, our Tree Doctor with the rope can give a good verdict on this case.
Kadira Saturday, 13 November 2010 07:38 AM
This is what happens when law and order in the country breaks down. Happy Banana Republic.
Assay Bayai! Saturday, 13 November 2010 07:36 AM
Has this been yet added to the Penal Code of Sri Lanka(tying to trees)? or are they sleeping on it?
pj Saturday, 13 November 2010 07:35 AM
Even the Govt.Ministers do the same ? Why not the Forest Officers or the People?
malkanthi Saturday, 13 November 2010 07:34 AM
Hardly any difference between police and forest departments.
Abdul Razeen Saturday, 13 November 2010 07:33 AM
I'm not exactly a fan of the police, but I don't see what they have done wrong here. The forest officers and the villagers who took the law into their own hands are the ones at fault.
Modawansa Saturday, 13 November 2010 07:23 AM
tie them to trees -Punishing people the Sri Lankan way.
