All have forgotten this incident of 2011 i.e. 11 long years ago.Now it is said that the Defence is to raise Preliminary objections ! Are these Cases being filed by the BC not with the objective of a genuine prosecution ?

Must be tried and jailed. BR/NR/MR/GR must also be tried and jailed for the Economic Collapse. RW is the only hope now. Disce Aut Discede...Great Royalist.

Don't worry Johnston after a mini drama you will be freed from all the cases and will be over as there is no justice in this country. If there is justice you will be counting the bars in prison long ago.

Very good! Now serve severe punitive justice for these rascals. Also all involved in every other GoSL racket -from top to bottom ranks, for bribery, swindling, Easter Sunday massacre, and allowing henchmen to swindle on their behalf etc; etc. Round them all up and serve serious Jail sentences with RI for at least 40 -50 years for each with NO parole OR Pardon possible.

As long is Rajapaksas and Rajapakses around and SLPP in power, no chance SLPP henchmen like him and convicted of bribe taking Rantunga will actually suffer. The judicial system is like how Ranjan Ramnayake said, prone to corruption, so can be used to free these two on appeal after conviction even. Just like Choka Malli now full fledged MP again!

Ban him from leaving the country immediately, then lift the ban a week later and let him leave. Same as normal.

It is very noble of the courts that a sentence was passed on this liquor man. But the big puzzle is, who will implement this sentence and when? As it is, there are several MPs who are sentenced by courts but the courts does not have power to implement. In Sinhala there is apt saying, "යුද්ධට නැති කඩුව, *** කපන්න ද? This makes a mockery of our legal system, where the learned judges dare to give verdict against culprits, knowing that they may become targets of retaliation by the Master Criminal because he has blind followers. "Yes. We are the blind followers and we will continue to follow" say the people. What is the solution? Ultimate Death? Paralyze? Mentally deranged? We already have one still living example who walked into a ministry and slapped the Naval higher up! In other words, we wait for divine intervention? This is the ultimate refuge!
