    Is this a new in this country !!!!!!!!!

    KiloWattson Tuesday, 26 August 2014 10:37 AM

    he did not harrass the girl he verbally harassed the girl but that does not give the girl right to physically assualt him.

    KiloWattson Tuesday, 26 August 2014 10:36 AM

    you have very little imagination and even lesser creativity. You must be pretty boring to have around.

    Gayan Tuesday, 26 August 2014 10:13 AM

    Spot on!

    Just Another Citizen Tuesday, 26 August 2014 10:10 AM

    Perverts need to be treated like that. Think about your mother, sister, wife or even your daughter. Would you want them to be harassed by a pervert, touched or even raped? How would you feel?

    Him going deaf is probably for some other reason and he just wants attention.

    malkanthi Tuesday, 26 August 2014 10:04 AM

    His wife must have given a good 'kane shot' and left him.

    Nihal Tuesday, 26 August 2014 08:59 AM

    Good show. Apparently in Sri Lanka verbally harrasing women in a joke. I am glad some gutsy girl decided to contributre to putting an end to this vulgarity. Well done, miss. I hope these young louts will lean a lesson from this.

    DHA Tuesday, 26 August 2014 08:49 AM

    Surely legal action needs to be taken over this girl even after he apologized she reacted like a thug.......but a clever guy...waited like a dumb idiot all these days to bounce back.....but madam parliament doors are open for you....

    Jude Fernando Tuesday, 26 August 2014 10:38 AM

    I love it. Great work girl. Keep it up. These guys are frustrated fellows. You find them in Australia too. They are living on the dole.

    pradeep Tuesday, 26 August 2014 08:44 AM

    This incident does not need this much publicity. What I see is the boy has better behavior than the girl.

    Meril Tuesday, 26 August 2014 08:03 AM

    From the looks of this guy i don't think he's innocent. The girl was courages but she should have stopped the beating.

    chandler Tuesday, 26 August 2014 07:51 AM

    She is just overboard, none has the right to assault anyone except in an anarchy.

    chandler Tuesday, 26 August 2014 07:48 AM

    God save her future husband!

    Suq Madique Tuesday, 26 August 2014 07:21 AM

    Maybe you haven't heard about the recent rapes and other forms of women abuse in India?

    Nirantha Tuesday, 26 August 2014 06:50 AM

    She may be poor or rich but she or anyone does not have right to assault, keep that in mind.

    maddy Tuesday, 26 August 2014 06:49 AM

    seems this man is good for nothing but to make stupid comments. This incident is a personal problem between those who involve with it. Do you criticize other countries as well when such minor incidents happen in those countries??

    wasantha Tuesday, 26 August 2014 06:38 AM

    Appearance is like a red light girl, act like a devil girl.

    Mason Tuesday, 26 August 2014 06:10 AM

    The boy deserves what he got. The ear problem is a drama because the slaps do not reach the years.
    The girl needs to be commended and the boy should be punished.

    Suq Madique Tuesday, 26 August 2014 12:23 PM

    This girl gave this cad a lesson his parents and teachers should have taught him. Too often they've gotten away with their abuse and tormenting of women. There are many speaking against the actions of the girl but did any of them raise their voices when women in general were being harassed?? Maybe to them its just a case of 'boys will be boys'?

    sumith Wednesday, 27 August 2014 09:34 AM

    There is a law in this country, don't forget that , no body can take law into their own hands.

    Ruwan Wednesday, 27 August 2014 07:17 AM

    How exactly are girls punished every day by the law??

    Ruwan Wednesday, 27 August 2014 07:04 AM

    You think women slapping men only happens in Lanka??

    sk Wednesday, 27 August 2014 05:37 AM

    I think what the girl did was right

    Ruwan Wednesday, 27 August 2014 03:12 AM

    Very true! Verbal abuse does not warrant physical assault.

    Ruwan Wednesday, 27 August 2014 03:06 AM

    This works both ways idiot! If verbal abuse warrants assault, then I can go around assaulting men and women for 'verbal abuse.' Haha!

    mack Tuesday, 26 August 2014 06:52 PM

    just imagine if a guy did this to a girl what would have been the reaction via DM Android App

    Dayawathie Tuesday, 26 August 2014 12:33 PM

    She should be charged for assaulting. No matter what she cannot take the law into her hands and hit another person.

    synicle Tuesday, 26 August 2014 06:05 AM

    I think this girl, like so many girls, was utterly frustrated by a lifetime of teasing and humiliation by such people. Eve teasing is illegal (verbal sexual harassment), but perpetrators never get punished do they? Girls are punished daily - they always have to think twice about where they go, what they wear, what job they can go to. Hope you advocate for punishment for eve teasers and harassers also.

    Do you not think that if his mother told him once to respect girls that he would have?? Its always the boys fault... but there are other women who refer to other women as sluts, whores, tarts, indecent in front of their sons who then go on to think that all women re sluts, whore, tarts, indecent! the problem is women! not men! I am sick of women always blaming the man, when it is the woman who can acually put a stop to it from the butt

    Dee Tuesday, 26 August 2014 12:13 PM

    Looking forward to meet this girl. Not to ask for compensation by complaining of a ear problem. But this is the type of women we need. Not one ones who sit and cry, expecting miracles ato fall down from the sky. My wishes with you girl. You can go places. Keep it up.

    deshpremi Tuesday, 26 August 2014 11:36 AM

    Finaly no man will tocuh her not even her husband......too scared what her reaction would be , ha ha ha........good show for starved sri lankan jobless social media goons

    Araliya Tilakaratne Tuesday, 26 August 2014 11:18 AM

    what if it happened to your mother or sister?
    would you say nasty girl has to be punished and poor boy

    Sylvia Haik Tuesday, 26 August 2014 11:16 AM

    It's the young lad's hormones kicking in but the girl was going over the top with her morality especially after wearing skin tight trousers tempting hormonal young boys.

    purelankan Tuesday, 26 August 2014 11:01 AM

    Seems like he met a lawyer and building up a case to claim something. I believe the guy deserves what he got. Most guys in this country thinks that if a girl wears jeans or at least a bit social for that matter that she is a whore or slut. And sorry to say that most of our idiot guys don't know how to get girls, they tend to say insulting stuff to them from a distance hoping that the girl would love the remark. The world has changed my friends, that's not how u get the girl. Just think of your mother and sisters before passing insulting remarks to other girls on the streets. This guy insulted the wrong girl.

    KiloWattson Tuesday, 26 August 2014 10:39 AM

    dont blame me for steroryping ... but I can't help but point out that the girl is ...well the Watti-amma type :D

    Izmy Tuesday, 26 August 2014 03:34 AM

    What the social media has done by this will finally lead suicide by one of the two or both.

    Prasa Tuesday, 26 August 2014 03:56 AM

    We should stop this now !! this is fals claim. He cant get hearing problems due to slapping o face unless ear got covered in shots, but it is not the case.
    This is drama by some one to make that girl into a trable. Police should stop this. That girl is an example and encouragement to all girls (she over did it little bit but it is ok). Girls are getting harrased and raped but no one talk about victims like they talk about this guy. You can see what type of a guy he is. We should rise against humiliatiing that girl for doing the right thing !!

    christpher Tuesday, 26 August 2014 03:48 AM

    I am surprised why the Police has not arrested so far despite having video evidence the Polices silent on the issue. No body could take the law unto hand?

    fuzzy Tuesday, 26 August 2014 09:16 AM

    is this how v protect womens rights. girl did the right thing but now she seems to be the accused. via DM Android App

    willnotbeharassed Tuesday, 26 August 2014 03:41 AM

    A pervert harasses a girl on the street and she defends herself and the male population says "poor boy" and "nasty girl" hahahahaha!!! good lord the world is crazy!

    Rajaratnam Tuesday, 26 August 2014 03:41 AM

    We always sympathizing women as per the culture and this girl taking advantages on that. As per the reports he did not make a crime for her to beat for about 15 mts repeatedly. hence she should be taken to task.

    The God Father Tuesday, 26 August 2014 03:38 AM

    This girl is gonna be single for sometime

    AJJA Tuesday, 26 August 2014 03:35 AM

    This is a well set drama and how can some one else could do a close video....this is a set one

    Sammy Tuesday, 26 August 2014 03:35 AM

    The girl must have some power in her so as to cause hearing problems by slapping.

    Victor Tuesday, 26 August 2014 03:59 AM

    He is just another cunning fellow who knows how to get the sympathy vote. This man is good for politics

    Azee Tuesday, 26 August 2014 09:00 AM

    Whether it warranted a slapping by the girl depends on what the boys remarks were via DM Android App

    mail_guy Tuesday, 26 August 2014 03:22 AM

    This girl thinks that she is Jacqueline Fernandez or what?

    Arnold Tuesday, 26 August 2014 03:21 AM

    The girl is not wearing a dress, she is wearing a Tshirt and jean

    meranchi Tuesday, 26 August 2014 03:11 AM

    that is prostitute acct ........i

    Gon Haraka Tuesday, 26 August 2014 03:06 AM

    Both the girl and the Boy needs Psychiatric Help . No one should go on hitting another like that and No one should allow someone else to keep hitting him like that .

    Victor Tuesday, 26 August 2014 03:03 AM

    One cunning fellow he is. He knows how to get sympathy of others....

    Poor boy! The nasty girl has to be punished in some way.

    el Tuesday, 26 August 2014 05:07 AM

    I don't know why people are making premature judgements of this story. He has a right to get a medical examination done and its the doctors who need to decide whether its a genuine or a false claim.

    The girl has to be prosecuted for ASSAULT. Typical political culture - taking the law in to their own hands!

    In ancient days a man has to defeat a Bull in order to win a woman, this is in order to prove he is tough who can handle a woman. Women are not for wimps.
    I yet to understand this sweet thing who sometimes make you so vulnerable, angry, weak, powerful, cry, laugh, happy, sad, rich, poor, murderer, protector...... In this case SHE HAS MADE THIS DEAF. You name it all she is behind the seen with a grin. I wish I know them.

    Victor Tuesday, 26 August 2014 05:12 AM

    Of course. she did the correct thing. These type of guys deserves that slapping. What he did was not acceptable at all being a father of a 4 year old daughter...

    Nova Tuesday, 26 August 2014 05:09 AM

    There is a limit for woman rights as well. woman cannot just physically assault guys just because of woman's rights.

    Margosa Tuesday, 26 August 2014 04:34 AM

    There should be law making authorities all over the streets in order to protect anyone's rights, especially of the women and children and the feeble and so on.
    If law can be maintained in all places privided the law makers can do right, these issues could be stopped to a great extent.
