Former Minister Mervin Silva said he was expecting Pastor Jerome Fernando who is currently overseas to come to Negombo to get him hammered or knocked by his men.

Addressing the media, Silva said people like Jerome should be expelled from the country for instilling hatred and communal disharmony.

"Jerome had been getting a large amount of dollars. Besides, people who make public statements like him are also getting dollars from foreign countries," he said.

He also alleged that the sister of Opposition Leader Sajith Premadasa is also a follower of Jerome and added certain politicians are also his followers.

"The loyalty of certain politicians including Sajith Premadasa towards Jerome is evident with their stance of being silent in the sequence of events associated with Jerome," he added. (Sheain Fernandopulle)

    This is best Mr. Mervyn...not Jerome people like u should not be born..your son no better.

    This guy needs to be arrested for making threats, Jerome made stupid statements, but I believe people have a right to their own opinions, to assault or murder someone for such a thing isn't the Buddhist thing to do, such hypocrisy, Buddhism has been corrupted by selfish monks and politicians trying for votes, even people do evil stuff to people or animals then watch pirrith or go temple like their saints

    This is how we have all through our Buddhist civilisations 2500 year history solved our problems the exception being during the period of colonial rule, that is by murder, rape, knifing, beatings, burnings, mutilations etc. After the whiteman left we resumed this method of operating

    Danushka Friday, 26 May 2023 07:17 PM

    This guy should be arrested for his statement. He seems to be fermenting hatred and violence. He was silent for a long while, and has now begun to raise his head and open his mouth again.

    What MdeS does not understand is that everyone does not want to get into the gutter like him.

    ROSH Friday, 26 May 2023 07:21 PM

    Jesus Christ said please don’t force on innocent folks who can speak out the truth. I know satan Mervin always looking for violence against innocent. He is using his thugs to silence Jesus. I can remember television net work. He always looking for publicity so we need to getting rid of these thugs like Mervin planet of the earth. We need to send him back to moon

    THE RABBLEMAKER IS NOT ONLY JEROME FERNANDO BUT ALSO SILVA, STALIN ARNOLD.

    Ahimsa Friday, 26 May 2023 07:36 PM

    My men are waiting to hammer Gnanasara, moda wansa etc. Tit for tat. wait for that day okay?

    Julie Friday, 26 May 2023 07:52 PM

    Now this should be illegal and openly threatening then covered by the papers? Seriously can we issue a warrant on this Mervin guy?

    Spartacus Friday, 26 May 2023 07:54 PM

    This kind of thuggery is what you Sinhalese are experts. That is why this country is in this State.

    Ceylonese Friday, 26 May 2023 08:04 PM

    Mervyn the Pissa.

    Citizens Friday, 26 May 2023 08:22 PM

    You cannot comment like that cos there are many waiting to hammer you. No difference between you and the puppet. Both are rogues who have brought shame upon the country.

    Law Major Friday, 26 May 2023 08:31 PM

    Arrest Nerwin Silva, the thug first. What right he has to take the Law into his ✋️ hands

    Les Friday, 26 May 2023 08:43 PM

    Mervin you are the biggest bastard

    Reader Friday, 26 May 2023 09:02 PM

    Mervin is instigating violence. This is the problem of the politicians on the majority side. This is for cheap popularity. Shame. He should say the law should take its course.

    Atheïst Friday, 26 May 2023 09:14 PM

    Yeah, you sound like a true pacifist religious man. You don't instill hatred and communal disharmony at all, right? RELIGION IS A PRIVATE MATTER!

    Alex Saturday, 27 May 2023 09:23 AM

    There comes our true patriot Buddhist descendant of Dutugemunu The soldiers were on standby all these years-WOW

    Sivalingam Saturday, 27 May 2023 01:26 PM

    Oh Marvyn! Saturday, 27 May 2023 02:43 PM

    MS is showing true Sri Lankan colours. Any wonder why SL is one of the most miserable countries?

    DOT Saturday, 27 May 2023 05:23 PM

    SLRC type action to be seen!

    Tissa Fernando Saturday, 27 May 2023 05:35 PM

    So, he is indirectly saying that the Pastor should use it to gain political asylum, so Mervyn Sylva is actually helping him to get away.

    Patriot Sunday, 28 May 2023 05:55 AM

    No more violence, please.

    Jeewala Bandupala Sunday, 28 May 2023 04:37 PM

    If you can, do the same at the parliament!!
