Dear Lasantha, we salute your boldness! Look, people who were responsible for your untimely death is now put garland to your photograph before coming to politics. Are you uncomfortable?

Why after all these days is it cos of the election?mark my words once the CID takes over new evidence will be unearthed like mushrooms blooming.A suspect will be found like a magician pulling a rabitt out of the hat.Invariably this suspect will point the finger at the commen candidate.

Just passing the buck. What a fuss being made just to find the murderers of one man, especially a murder carried out by a gang on motor cycles, in broad daylight, on a busy street within the full view of a lot of motorists and pedestrians. It is just a joke as everybody knows who the killers are but nobody wants to catch them.

So another delay - procrastination is the name of the game so far. Inevitable end will be six years hence. A farce as investigations will start from scratch again and dates will be requested from Court, time and again. A murder in the HSZone is still unsolved !! Who is fooling whom ?

WHY WAITED SO LONG TO HAND OVER CASE, is it to erase all available evidence?? Why not involve Scotland Yard , FBI, KGB, MOSSAD , RAW to solve the murder of Lasantha? WHAT A SHAME OF AFFAIRS. Why only transfer at the time of Presidential Election, is it to get the family votes of Lasantha, the greatest, fearless Journalist

Lasantha before he was killed wrote a note to president which was never sent to him, but was released by his wife unofficially after death. He has indicated that president knows who is behind him. And basically the whole public knows who is behind all these killings and covered by GOSL. Now GOSL even capable of taking the investigation to their hands and declare SF is involved. Oh god!! what dirty politicians we have. SF please help us to get read of this political menace.
