Former monitoring MP of the Ministry of Defence Duminda Silva and 4 others were sentenced to death by the Colombo High Court today in a divided judgement over the Bharatha Lakshman Premachandra murder.
Premachandra was murdered in 2011.
In October 2011 the Colombo Telegraph reported how Former President Mahinda Rajapaksa had said that Silva was not his man, but was former Defence Secretary Gotabaya Rajapaksa’s ‘man.’
He had made this statement to both Bharatha Lakshman Premachandra and former Prime Minister Rathnasiri Wickamanayake.
Informed sources told Colombo Telegraph that Just before his murder, Premachandra had complained to the President that Duminda Silva had given a contract to underworld thugs to murder him. President Rajapaksa had subsequently ordered the Criminal Investigations Department (CID) to investigate the alleged murder plot. Two underworld gangsters who were in police custody at that time had given statements to the CID confirming the murder plot.

it was not a unanimous verdict.Food for thought.There are still judges condoning drug traffiking and murder.The judiciary should be cleaned up once and for all.

Duminda Silva had told earlier that he had balanced that specific Judge “Gunarathne”. It is on record by newspapers.
govt has to investigate that.
fortunately, his decision to acquit him does not affect the final decision he was not acquitted.
Yet, that needs to be investigated.

Whatever you add, people of this country including Kolonnawa people are very much aware of the real nature of Kudu Duminda.
Kudu DUminda has no whatsoever talent…. to be on the political stage but it was enough him to repeat – ATHIGARU JANADHIPATHI to get close to Rajakapskehe criminals.
So it is no secret this man had dealt with that Welesuda, Now pplease let the bugger fall even deeper for the diverse crimes he himself perpetrated being unable to see it right. Former president and his men were to be blamed to have misguided the kind of muscle men with higher testesterone mirrors to allow killings.
Had the bugger been normal, Hirunikas father woudl have survived the life today…. that family is most who suffered no body else.::
In the future you will see, Mahinda will also have to suffer the way Duminda does it today.
In the future you will see Gotabaya will also hae to suffer the way Duminda does it today.

Some said to be a shot of Beliatta rascals….
Affintiies converged later only.. remember once Mervin to have said… there are born children to many women of his and Rajakashes … they may the ones rise up against them to that time…
That was btw a public statement – though the country is called to be of predominant buddhists.
No decency has the chance – but like punnkku eating rudiments, people were guided…
Consequences count today… Thanks to Rajakashes.
Miracle of Rajakashe – put him an earth hole, no wayout to get back… his two so called muscle men would be the next target by LANKEN laws – for the high crime perpetrated to WASIM family.
I am buddhist srilanken – but i will take the side of Wasim in this case.
We the sinhala diasphora will do anything and everything to corner Rajakshes and the like men in the mother land.. but also respecting him to have contributed something for saving the nation from the brutal CIVIL war…
But the cake should be shared with all parties… it was his job by the way to lead the country… that is not magic.

Why is that nobody talks about the doctored medical reports that highlighted Bugger Duminda to have a fatal head injury.. these were telecasted by university educated MEDICAL PROFESSIONALS… I wonder why the investigative bodies stay silent not focusing on their then statements misguiding the entire folks.
And inthe same time, there was lawyer that argued always protecting Duminda Silva – at the time, the bugger was kept in secret in a hospital or a Brothel in Singapore- but continously reporting his health situation was no good … etc… all these were blatant lies stammered by RAJAPAKSHE family… All these should be investigated…. by contacting medical officers in Singapore… in a murder case such this, they the authorities will have to allow lanken investigators to study them closely.
There was no truth in them at all.
But punnaku eating majority that yet rally round to Mahinda Raja thought …. all as the myths similar to that we the sinahalayas are lion hybrids…. anyways, these were the all worst daysin lanken history.

It is reported that MR in his second term was lethargic with any political involvments, letting his siblings do the job. THis was revealed by Dayan Jayathilaka and Prof. Rajeewa Wijesinghe in a TV conversation… later, he became like not very much interesting with external affairs, as had been before….. this should have led his destruction to the nation…
May be him to have become KING of nation – just for that matter the term was under his lead at the time, country s forces liberated most virulent REBELLS, ARTISTEs such as DOBY BOY- Jackson Anthony et should take the responsiblity.
Even a stupid person would be lifted that high – he will behave as untouchable for a while… best example is what came out from Sathyagaraya brought by Sannasagala – there Royal Astrologers person was revealed. The man had not the least idea about the education.. but to have been offered more than 6 director positions by President and his authorties – raise the question, President should have gone all mad…
Ther are enough of example to this nature…
External mnistry was caricatured by an OxFORD learnt candidate, him to have been made silent.. as a lab rat when taking and making crucial decisions on external issues and external staffers.. are really funny.
How can GLP face the world today.. he has to continue as a penisless man.. in the same time, Bogalawa.. who ate dollar in thousand notes.. shoudl follow GLP… All in all, Mrs B was believed to be the WIHARAMAHADEWI …. to have maintained all acceptable external politics with getting the kind of BMICH as gift from China… what other leaders gotten are nothing .. MR may have profited what Bandaranayakes planted… however, MR s kith and kin made in a way that harm even flies.

Passing death sentence has no meaning when the the noose cannot be tightened.
And further, there are no experienced noose handlers in Sri Lanka and execution is impossible.
The gruesome raping and murder of Krishanthi Kumarasamy in the North during Chandrikas regime resulted in the death sentence for Corporal Rajapakse and his colleagues. Where are they now?
In the present political situation, this sentencing is good as clear message is given to Rajapakse Bros and Puthas.
God bless Sri Lanka.

Even if some STATESin the america promote death sentences, why should we go for that… better to grab the funds of those who collected them by illegal means, instead build up new prisons to allow these men to rest their lives.
I will agree with anyone, who would speed up Rajakshe issues when it comes to death penalty levels, Rajakashe father shoudl be given general pardon, but the sons if charged with death penalty should be sent to jails.
For one reason, his some decisions stood firm in the last fight of the war. It was mixture of everything but we have to consider it – as it lasted 30 long years… What was not affected by War inthat country.. we were taken 30 years back..

I hear that with the rising refugees trying to escape to the first world countries,the first world is going to go after the leaders of the third world that have stashed the stolen loot,thus impoverishing and destabilizing their third world countries.

Where have you been all these days? You are missing lot of fun in this forum.
There are many who arbitrarily type Sinhala Nation, Sinhala Buddhism, Sinhala Buddhist country is finding it difficult to define/explain the concepts behind these catch phrases/political slogans. Can you help them define what is in their head?
Here is a PhD thesis which I thought might of interest to you. Book is also available on Amason.
Tamils and the nation: India and Sri Lanka compared
Rasaratnam, Madurika (2012) Tamils and the nation: India and Sri Lanka compared. PhD thesis, The London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE).
Abstract
This dissertation examines the divergent trajectories of ethnic and national politics in the Tamil speaking regions of India and Sri Lanka. Despite comparable historical experiences and conditions, the south Indian Tamil speaking areas were peaceably accommodated within a pan-Indian framework whilst Sri Lankan politics was marked by escalating Tamil-Sinhala ethnic polarisation and violent conflict. The dissertation explains these contrasting
outcomes by setting out a novel theoretical framework that draws on the work of Reinhart Koselleck and his analysis of the links between concepts and political conflict. It argues that in the era of popular sovereignty the nation and
ethnicity have become central and unavoidable concepts of political order, but concepts that can be deliberately constructed through political activity in more or less inclusive ways. Setting out the conceptual connections between the nation, ethnicity and popular sovereignty, the dissertation shows how the conceptual tension between a unified national identity / interest and ethnic pluralism becomes a central and unavoidable locus of political contestation in the era of popular sovereignty. Tracing the politics of ethnicity and nationalism in India and Sri Lanka from the late nineteenth century to the late 1970’s, the analysis shows that the accommodation of Tamil identity within Indian nationalist frameworks and the escalation of Tamil – Sinhala ethnic conflict in Sri Lanka cannot be linked to differences in ethnic demography, political system, historical experiences or the structure of economic incentives.
It reveals instead that these divergent outcomes are best explained as effects of contingent and competitive processes of political organisation and mobilisation through which deliberately more or less ethnically inclusive national identities are asserted, established and then contested.

IF that was not enough THE OLD PISSAS GROOMED the Other youths too , For EXample Duminda,,,
Morawanse, EX UK H.C Basher called SV. (. To name a few). too were of Vulnerable Age .
These men may be in their 40s Had been GROOMED BY THE MEDAMULANA MONKEYS ALONG WITH HIS OFFSPRINGS FOR THE LAST 10 – 15 Years to steal , murder , and Drug Peddle.
Unrestricted Power and STOLEN WEALTH PLAYED A BIG PART IN GROOMING THESE MEN AND WOMEN.
All Robbed from the state and given to these young Modayas like Bharatha To commit Crimes , who was sentenced to Death Today.
Who Was the Architect of All these EVILS AS THEY WERE LET LOOSE TO MURDER ECT .
THE ARCHITECTS OF THIS DESTRUCTION OF YOUNG WERE NONE OTHER THAN THE MARAPISSA SIBLINGS.
THAT FAMILY FROM MEDAMULANA AS ADULTS OR MATURED MEN SHOULD TAKE THE BLAME FOR THE DOWN FALL OF THESE MEN AND WOMEN.

There is no meaning in getting serious talks on this. Nobody knows why Ranil allowed this case to go forward. There is no more constitutions amendment to save Old King with the name of a Solution to Sampanthar””. That has been put on hold until next year.

He will continue with his molesting of young girls to satisfy his sadistic carnal desires, whilst using the prison environment as his own fiefdom. The opportunity is rife for him to set the stage to facilitate visits by notable politicians and to host those once they are sentenced. Those who will ultimately share those same premises. He took this whole country for a ride with his false claims of being shot thru the head, and now even his protector and close buddy, the invincible Gota is also made to look a fool. There is no greater tyranny than that which is perpetrated under the shield of the law, while the people are left craving for justice.

having duminda in jail without implementing the death penalty will be a serious mistake. police have found recently that armed gangs are roaming all over the country directed by guys with mobiles in prison.Without these prisoners the gangs will be like headless chooks.take the case of pottu naufer who killed judge sarath ambepitiya,happily running his arganisation from jail.A judge can be killed and the bugger is not hanged yet.Will any judges take their job seriously if this is the protection they get.Take the case of seya’s killer.should that piece of excrement live even for one more day.
If sirisena is shacked with his bhuddhist principles,he should step down for one month and hand the country over to the philipine president who will come and do the executions with a firing squad quickly and go back to the philippines.The whole country will breathe a sigh of relief and thank the philippine president profusely and give him a flag waving send off.
If sirisena can’t do administration because of bhuddhist principles he should not have put his hand up for this job.He should just sit under a bo tree the whole day.Lord bhuddha was not and administrator,he was a wise one who taught us how to live in a better way.His dad had to do the administration for him.
somebody has to do the dirty work too to make the world a cleaner and better place to live in.The garbage collectors are some of the most important people on this planet.Just imagine what it will be like if your garbage has piled up in front of your house for months and nobody is refusing to get rid of it.
Human garbage too must be cleared and got rid of so that others can continue to live without the stink emanating from them flooding their nose every day.

Guys,
Wait until Duminda’s appeal against the conviction come up . He will be released on bail by Ranil’s golayas in the AG’s department.
Finally, Ranil will save Duminda from the hang man too.
Ranil is very worried that his friend Rohan’s sister Dr. Maheshi the neuro surgeon who suppose to have operated on Duminda will be prosecuted for giving written report stating that Duminda was shot and his condition was critical. On that report Duminda was sent to Singapore.
Dr. Mahesi should be prosecuted for giving false statement to the courts.
Ranil, start the spade work to save both Duminda and Maheshi.
Ranil will do it in order to get a huge donation from you know who is very close to Dr. Maheshi??? The man with Access.

Just curious how much a damage is done from a way of injury on the skull of Kudu Dumiya?
It will well known that Dr. Maheshi was to doctor a fake injury for Kudu Dumi by the instructions of Gota.
Also worth to note that Maheshi does own a luxury hotel in the East coast and was declared open by non other than MaRa.
With strong UNP roots, lets see how much Ranil will do to make this evil Doctor exposed…

The verdict was not unanimous even though there was one eye witness testimony by Bharatha’s driver. IN fact the dissenting judge being the president or the three judge panel acquitted all four accused of all charges. This judge is as corrupt and crooked as they come. This scoundrels dissenting judgement is not only a mockery but will also pave the way for successful appeals against the judgement. The judiciary is corrupt. This case exposes it very clearly. The other profession that has also been exposed as utterly crooked is the medical profession. The next drama to be enacted is when Dumia is given fake medical certificates as happened during this trial and ends up warded in the lap of luxury while the services of another scoundrel judge from the appeals court is obtained to get the charges dismissed. The show is not over not by a long shot. All this goes on while the Brahmin turns his nose up and looks the other way absolutely refusing to clean up these crooks from the seats of power they sit in and muck up.

The judge who dissented is a friend of the MARAs and must be investigated . the judiciary cannot afford to have scumbags like this Gunaratne judge sitting on cases. The appointments were made by unscrupulous ex chief justice Sarath the sex pervert and the criminal Rajapakse family. Judiciary commission needs to carry out its duties now and undertake an investigation into the qualifications and experience and integrity of this crooked judge. Also the point raised by Hirunika is very valid and the neurosurgeon who issued a false report must be investigated and jailed and the license to practice cancelled for life. A disgrace to the medical profession and this issue must be given the maximum publicity so that no patients will see this neurosurgeon who obviously will be happy to do favours for monetary and sexual gratification.

Do not forget that the gun used to kill Bharatha was belonging to the LTTE and probably smuggles after the war ended.
This Gnaratne chap even did not consider the procession of a stolen gun is a crime which is non bailable.

Good! hopefully he won’t be pardoned by another idiot/moron in the future like what stupid JR JAyaradene did releasing rohan wijeweera and prabakaran! If JR JAyaradene he should ve been stoned to death. >30 years of misery in Sri Lanka is due to this stupid idiot who became the leader in 1977.
