Message: <blockquote data-quote="Banks PLK" data-source="post: 8005444" data-attributes="member: 279320">An armed gang has attacked a private TV and  radio station in Sri Lanka's capital, Colombo, with firebombs.          Two people were injured in the attack on the independent  station, Siyatha.         Siyatha's owner left the country some months ago after  reports emerged that he had also funded the opposition presidential  candidate, Sarath Fonseka.         The government temporarily prevented Siyatha from covering  official events and withdrew advertising from its newspaper, which has  now closed down.         However, its broadcasts have not been critical of the  government.         Witnesses told the BBC that about 12 masked men, most of them  armed, stormed Siyatha's premises in the city centre and went on a  rampage early on Friday.         They threw petrol-bombs and destroyed much of the  broadcasting equipment, forcing staff to kneel at gunpoint and  assaulting two of them.         The BBC's Charles Haviland in Colombo says the attack was  reminiscent of an earlier firebombing of another TV station 18 months  ago.          A US-based journalists' rights organisation ranks Sri Lanka  as the fourth-worst country for impunity in attacks on journalists. <img src="/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/default/sad.gif"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":(" title="Sad    :(" data-shortname=":(" /><img src="/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/default/sad.gif"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":(" title="Sad    :(" data-shortname=":(" /><img src="/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/default/sad.gif"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":(" title="Sad    :(" data-shortname=":(" /></blockquote>
