Political backlash over arrest

Freedom running riot Sunday, 24 August 2025 03:34 PM

When Sarath Fonseka was made to kneel after Mahunda got him arrested for contesting against Mahinda where was the backlash. When the Mahan kayas wanted to have a protest march from Kandy why did Mahinda threaten at tht time . Now with this democratic government these fools make the best use of the free democratic freedom

Some who are in that gathering are also guilty of corruption. They are lucky they are still free and cannot afford to talk about Ranil's arrest.

Take one good look around all these individuals - there you have them, all those rallying support against the rule of law and the functioning of the judiciary by pretending this is a 'dictatorship'. If it wasn't clear before (and I count myself as one of them), back in 2015 when Sirisena came to power with the whole 'good governance' promises - ever wonder why under his government they didn't investigate the corruption cases against ministers? Bond scam? Sri Lankan airlines? Port city? Major investments in the country such as the countless 5 star hotels etc? It is because he was protecting them all along. And notice Chandrika Kumaratunga - she is doing exactly the same. At least we know who not to vote next time. Hope they feel the pain, hunger, hardships that many have gone through since independence. Good riddance to this bunch!

Just look at the people in this photo! The entire corrupt lot has teamed up against ` Law and Order being equal for all Citizens` . Political differences aside, no law abiding Citizen should ever stand with this rotting set. In case of any doubt, glaring in front is also of why Taisei corporation of Japan pulled out of our airport development as a reminder of who these people are.

These guys are trying to take advantage - politically lost parties / individuals with corruption related charges to many of them. Worth a try. Remember that the public wants a corruption free (Rajapakse-less) Country and the rule of law same to to every citizen.

Either most of them or all of them deserve to be behind the bar. They are afraid now. Let the law decide their fates, do not listen to their cry.

Sajith should have come. He is becoming an utter failure. No leadership qualities at all. Namal seems to be far ahead of him. Even Sirisena is doing well compared to the foolish Sajith. Sajith also should resign and go home. When his legal case comeup, nobody will come to support him.

These politicians divided the country with corruption. We became a poor nation and begged India to rescue us. The people on the photos are selfish politicians and their cronies.

Although the action against Ranil appears to be Corrupt v Uncorrupt, it is vindictive politics.

Check the tummies. Those are classic corrupt tummies. Even traffic police who take bribes have the same.
