By Colombo Telegraph –
Army intelligence officer Major C. Pradeep was admitted to the National Hospital after being assaulted by a group led by controversial minister Mervyn Silva‘s son Malaka Silva at a five star hotel in Colombo last night, according to a complaint made to the police.

Army Major was assaulted by Malaka Silva, Former Minister Mano Wijeratne’s stepson Rehan and five other persons at the Jaic Hilton car park at around 3.30 early this morning.
Police spokesman Ajith Rohana said a corporal who was with the Major at the time of the incident was also injured during the clash. The Slave Island police have recorded a statement from the Army Major who charged that his official pistol had been taken away by the group.
Not unlike his father, Minister Silva’s son Malaka has been notorious for terrorizing Colombo and its nightspots and is also a paid government official in Minister Silva’s Ministry. No one dares speak out against the Silva family due to their connections both with the underworld and their immunity due to presidential patronage.
Malaka’s track record
* In September 2007 an Accountant, Chaminda Senasinghe was hit on face with pistol butt by Malaka Silva at the Bistro Latino Restaurant. Speaking to The Sunday Leader from the Nawaloka Hospital, Chaminda recounted those last moments before he fell to the floor only to be kicked and manhandled by about 10 persons. (Sunday Leader September 9, 2007). After visiting hospital Chaminda lodged a complaint at the Bambalapitiya Police Station. However Malaka had made it to the police station before Chaminda and had himself made a complaint indicating a small bruise on the bridge of his nose and stating a group of persons had assaulted him. Senasinghe who had 11 stitches on his forehead and Malaka Silva was remanded on September 11, 2007 for pistol whipping Chaminda Senasinghe.
* Malaka Silva and two of his bodyguards on November 2, 2006 pleaded guilty to attacking attacking Police Narcotics Bureau (PNB) officers who were on a drug raid at a night club in a five star hotel.

Colombo High Court Judge Upali Abeyratne ordered each of them to pay compensation of Rs. 10,000 each and enter into a bond in Rs 100,000 each to be of good behaviour for one year. The accused were Malaka Silva and his bodyguards Sampath Kumara Rajapakse and Prasanna Kumara Suresh. The judge ordered that the compensation be directed to the Police Rewards Fund.
In a direct indictment by the Attorney General the three accused were charged with willfully causing hurt to deter a public servant from his duty. Malaka Silva was charged with intimidating and obstructing the PNB team which went on a narcotics raid with a court order to the night club My Kind of Place at Taj Samudra in the early hours of July 24, 2005.
The accused were indicted with assaulting police personnel including PC R.W. A. Dayan Lasantha – an offence punishable under Section 323 of the Penal Code.
According to the statements given by PNB officers and PNB OIC Buddhika Balachandra at the magisterial inquiry, on the said date the narcotics team, on a tip-off had raided the night club to arrest an ‘ecstasy’ dealer who was said to have been trafficking the drug at the hotel. When the PNB officers who were in plain clothes were leaving the night club after completing the ten-minute raid, Malaka Silva had obstructed them and abused them in foul language. Malaka Silva had allegedly threatened the police officer at gunpoint and assaulted the police officers. Later he had called his bodyguard who was armed with a pistol and attacked the police officers.
The PNB team had allegedly withdrawn from the place as the accused were armed and as they did not want to create a problem there. Later they had complained to the Colombo Fort police station.
The accused had later surrendered to the police station. Ironically two days after the attack former Police Chief, Chandra Fernando, announced the release of Malaka Silva and his mates saying that there was no evidence. Media reported that the police were under pressure not to work hard on the case.
In his attempt to defend his son, Mervyn Silva abused journalists in filth and stated that he knows what to do with the owners of Sirasa and Swarnavahini – two privately owned media outlets.
Earlier in connection with this trial Malaka had also been banned from entry into night clubs after 7 p.m with a warning that if the ban were violated the one million rupee bail on the two persons would be converted to a fine and charged from them. (Sunday Leader September 9, 2007)
* According to a leaked US diplomatic cables, in February 2007, US Ambassador Patricia A. Butenis wrote to her Secretary of State saying that “according to a former Sri Lankan security services official, drug kingpins in Sri Lanka have political patrons in the government, chief among them Dr. Mervin Silva, a Member of Parliament and the Minister of Labor. His son, Malaka Silva, is suspected of trafficking the drug ‘ecstasy’ in Colombo.”

Late minister Mano Wijeratne has two son’s from his first marriage and his second wife Bharathi Wijeratne (the present Sri Lanka Ambassador to Turkey) has a son from a previous marriage. His name is Rehan Jayawickrema and he recently changed his name as Rehan Mano Wijeratne. Rehan is the person who allegedly involved with this attack with Makal Silva. Earlier version of this story named him as former minister Mano Wijeratne’s son.

If GOSL is clever, why cant they realize the essense of respective rehabilitation projects for the youth in need like – Malayaka of Mervin to have rehabilited appropriately. Then only they can have normal living without jeorpardizing the normal life of general public. When alone reading the comments on this thread and from what I have heard about these sons of so called ministers are REPORTED to be not brought up to a polite manner yet, they need therapies.
Please have listen to the video and convince it
In this way, GOSL can save some funds not wasting as it is the case now. How much of state funds have been abused by spending for body guards and for vehicle allocations for these buggers today ?

You indulge in luxuries that we cannot afford.
In 1971 nearly 18,000 youth were killed through no fault of their own. They were at the wrong place at the wrong time.
From 1987 to 1991 an estimated 130,000 youth were either killed or made to disappear.
Over the past 30 years an estimated 150,000 had lost their lives majority of them were innocent civilians mainly in the North East.
The people who died through no fault of their own did not ask for violent end to their precious lives.
Those who started the violent culture didn’t have the wisdom to know how the whole country was going to bleed.
Forty years of bloody history behind us therefore we should be much wiser than we were in 1971.
If we haven’t learned anything from the past we will not learn anything from the future.
If you let the genie out of the bottle you will never be able to put it back.

Native Kalavadda, politics is no business of pimps and whores. Being one of the fifty centers’ party who earns a filthy and shameless income by writing utter bullshit dribbling from your swine sugar daddy’s ass we cannot expect anything else from a pig like you. Before the deplorable pig that is you were incarnated by your swine master you had an another deplorable life under a different name where you used to waylay and assault on any dissent with a barrage of filthy comments that are characteristic of your sugar daddy, Mervyn Silva and the like failing which now you scavenger has resorted to a more civilized and seemingly the “ultimate idol citizen” of the country who would not violate a single letter from the most hallowed book of law in the world! You stupid fucker, you said you enjoyed my comments. Then enjoy this rotten egg attack too on your maggot self. You hang on to 18, 130 and 150 thousand numbers of slaughtered lives by the governments! So this is your business, a merchant of death! Don’t you ass selling for living pimp see that all those lives were lost due to the fault of whom? It is the government stupid wanker that is responsible for this crime! You dumb and deaf fucker think as though this country is the fiefdom of and governed by a monarch. It is not, it is a democracy! It is also true that your paymaster sugar daddy has destroyed the structure of this democracy and trying to make an autocracy out of it! And he has done a considerable destruction to it by now! Yet by default and through the very nature and manner it received independence from the British Empire, it is nothing else but a democracy! And a democratically elected government must function in a democratic way. A democratically elected government has no right whatsoever to kill its citizens citing various reasons such as the protection of the government, conspiracies against the government etc. etc. If the government elected by the people does not meet the aspirations of the people then it must step down from power and call for an election to let another government do the jobs they cannot do! Now for example this government is not capable of solving or rather has created huge issues out of normal routine administrative and running tasks of a country like education bungling, blundering in conducting exams, supply of adulterated petrol and diesel, adulterated medicine, distributing arsenic to farmers, plundering the stock market, you name it the government is there! So this is not a government, it is a den of rogues and bloody fools. And this kalawadda fucker thinks exercising people’s sovereignty to dispel a curse of such a shawled-regime is inviting and going back to the era of people being killed by the regime by the thousands! And to you stenching brat fucker think and hope people would still be deterred by your “non-violence threat” and let you fuckers go on plundering this country and flouting the rights of the people on whose tax you cancerous maggots survive? Did you see people of Syria got deterred and abandoned their fight by seeing the thousands upon thousands of deaths caused by their rogue government? Know this well fucker: this is not 71 or 80-83 era! This is global village era! What happens here is instant news on the other side of the world! People are waiting for that single spark that sets ablaze the whole fucking MARA regime, MARA moronic chinthanaya, MARA shawl and everything MARA! Unlike then today there are Tamils, there are Muslims and there are Sinhalese-Buddhists and Christians and Hindus too, and also there are India, US, UN, Britain, the Europe, African countries and other countries. The world is suffocating your fucking government day by day. With each loan taken the grip is tightened, with every installment you pay the noose on the people is pulled. And there would come a day the nincompoop Sinhalese Buddhist fuckers who voted you feel the suffocation and forced to make a choice between life and death. When there exist no distinction between life and death come back to this comment and try to understand how mislead and misconceived your piggish perception was! Do you pigs think and hope shoplifting Chinese would save your ass?

In fact not only in the above comment but also generally throughout all my comments I have raised many a scorching questions and searching answers none of which had even the semblance of an answer from you. What you have done is when the regime is challenged or cornered by exposing their mischiefs and crimes you 50 center jumps in and writes comments to ward off the attack and exposure! Everybody knows your and MARA’s dirty tactics and you will have to invent new one.

Precisely.
Thanks for recognising my ability to be pain in your neck.
This is exactly what I have set out to do in this forum and elsewhere.
Stupid Sinhalese and stupid Tamils have to be insulted on a regular basis. You need me to remind you how stupid you are. I am the right Vedda to do it for you of course free of charge.
You deserve me.
I would be worried if I am popular.

“”Come on he is the conquer of the Damedas and a Tiger slayer why is he afraid of everything and everybody when LTTE is completely wiped out from the face of the earth?””
MaRa is terribly afraid of KARMA since he was responsible for the massacre of many innocent civilians- children, women and young and old – in trying to destroy the LTTE, and feeling guilty for bribing VP to get elected and then to have killed him.

My request was: Please give me reasons as to why these two were great personalities.
You restated what we already knew about MR’s extended clan. They are well known crooks, alleged war criminals, ………….etc.
I am yet to hear about the “great personalities DS Senanayake and JR Jayawardena”.
If you cannot think of some thing about both of them please don’t bother.

Vedda’s comments remind me of a story of a prostitute who used to auction her holes freequetly to as many as 24 customers per night! And she too was very proud and happy that it was a special ability she possessed. Sometimes she handles two of them simultaneously and she says it was a gift received from her mother! She used to keep an empty bucket underneath her legs to collect the “throphies” and serums left behind by the customers! The story goes on that after a few months her asshole got rotten and the maggots who crept in for shelter took her to their world! Someone read her diary after her death and it said she was doing a service to those who were burning by the desire of lust!

Well, I felt you are like that [Edited out] endlessly cursed and condemned to perpetual shame and repulsion and mercilessly beaten like a red-handed caught banana thief! You said stupid Sinhalese and Tamils deserve you! Yes we totally agree with you with the deviation that we are not the type you think us to be. You can identify yourself with SLFPers, Weerawansars, Hela Urumayars etc. Also we are not going to teach you about the greatness of DS or JR because how can a mararized lunatic like you comprehend greatness? It is like preaching about profound and transcendental states of mind to MARA or a butcher in a meat shop-they simply can’t understand them nor do they possess the mental capacity, understanding, fortune and luck to appraise such exulted human states of mind and existence.

(Kala)vedda,
[Edited out] You keep asking what the challenge is. Go and ask your [Edited out] about it because they must have witnessed how challenging it was to bring up a lunatic like you. Did they commit suicide to be free from a pig bull hybrid animal like you?
DS and JR are of the same UNP and policy and hence policy wise and by heritage there is no difference between DS and JR. During the night you crept into the mosquito net that came to this country thanks to JR’s Open Economy Policy to save the last drop of blood in your malnourished figure; you covered your dirty bovine body with a cloth also came to this country due to JR’s OE; You [Edited out] wakes up your shameless, useless dustbin body at 9.00 a.m. from the bed produced and polished using the machinery raw material and skill that was endowed to this country thanks to JR’s OE; your loitering legs descended upon a pair of slippers also came to this country thanks to JR’s OE; you emptied the filth you have swallowed like a pig dumped on your backyard by MARA’s henchmen as payment to you for your laundry operations to a modern commode that came to this country thanks to JR’s OE; you looked at your piggish and ugly face on the mirror, used tooth brush and paste, used the tap, water pump, pipes, tank, electricity, running water all of which came to this country thanks to JR’s OE; you ate dhal, garlic, gram, cheese, butter etc. and drank milk, juice etc. to satiate your voracious greed of your burden-to-the- earth existence all of which found way to this country thanks to JR’s OE; to hide the funny, rural, uneducated, uncultured and stooping looks you possessed from your linage you wore cloths that came to this country thanks to JR’s OE; you picked up lies about Ranil and JR from your MARA channels from the television gifted to this country by foreign land due to GREATENESS of JR the greatness of whom was such that a mere speech of that unparalleled unique statesman whose fame and wisdom is known throughout the world earned him the Sri Jayawardenapura Hospital as a gift from Japan where as your hero MARA’s mere attempt to harangue at Oxford earned him worldwide protests and arrest warrants; you gossiped using the mobile phone that came to this country thanks to JR’s OE; you sat in front of the computer that came to this country thanks to JR’s OE; you plugged in the internet cable whose hardware and technology came to this country thanks to JR’s OE; and finally while consuming all the foods originated from JR’s OE to keep your sorry little scavenging existence from coming to an end you post all the defamatory, misleading, stupid, moronic and fucking comments perverted though the free education system planned and developed by JR based on OE principles questioning about the GREATENESS of JR and UNP! This is like questioning the authenticity of paternity of your father when your mother has had promiscuous relationships with every Dick Tom and Harry who possess low cast genes (your next comment would be on how to find low cast genes and I would provide the answer right now-those who think and write like you are of low cast genes!) The only solution to end your cursed continuation is to acquire thorough bread genes which like JR’s greatness cannot be told to you on how to bring about but only your mother can do it by effecting recommended thorough bread life production procedures where I can be a donor on grounds sympathy! Please let her pay a visit to me to obtain a biological help from me! With this I conclude my further comments to you on this matter and in the mean time you can if you so wish continue with your verbal diarrhea until you finally meet your maggot friends in the grave yard!
