An activist like Ranjan should not be languishing in a jail. Now there is no way out for him barring a Presidential Pardon but in his original trial in the Supreme Court he should have had a better Lawyer who would have fought for him from an international perspective.

His party should forward a Human Right petition to United Nation, European Union and all powerful Presidents of the world. If the Sri Lankan Government is not reacting, hope there should be sanctions.
