Whether Sri Lankans develop technology or not, innovate something new to the world or not; our people are experts in misusing the technology. Because misusing it easier and offers some short-term pleasure.

What a corrupt society we have in Sri Lanka these days. The school girls are also at fault to send their nude pictures to a male phone agent. Just bring all these corrupt guys to justice , and the school girls should be properly examined too, to find all culprits.

Release the name and details of the person. Even the Media gives only a part of the story and may be being paid to cover things.
