    Sad state of affairs. When govt fails to provide security and justice, people take the law into their own hands. System change needed right now.

    People shud not take the law into their hands. We will be worse than the gov.

    THE FAULT IS NOT IN THE SYSTEM. IT IS IN THE ADMINISTRATORS WHO HAS TO OVERSEE THIS. EVEN IF YOU MAKE CHANGES TO THE SYSTEM IF THE CARETAKERS ARE CARELESS NOTHING WILL WORK

    This is the real face of the Sri Lankan mob. These are the people who brought the Rajapaksa clan to power.

    I heard it was driven by a teenager. Then its good it was burnt and not harm the child. If not the defender would be released to influential owner immediately.

    A foolish act of vandalizing the public property rather than the driver if so desperate.

    Gone are the days the guys in defender were treated honourably. Tide is changing against the politicians and their stooges

    This should never happen. But the people are angry and frustrated and anything can provoke mayhem - something had to give way. Staying calm is the need of the hour.

    Look at the speed of the defender.. wow.. The driver must be punished..

    Does this vehicle belong to the group luxury vehicle parade from Kuliyapitiya to Kalpitiya?
