Questions Why can't Sri Lankans criticize judicial branch?

[poopoo]

idk, maybe asking this also get me and forum in trouble. if such thing possible, admins may remove this

anyway, why there's multiple incidents where people being charged for criticizing judicial branch? and even gets prison time.

isn't it going against the concept of free speech and democracy
we can express our feelings on executive and legislation branches without getting into trouble; right?
what's special on that 'thing' specifically?

This is a third world country where people did not fight for their freedom. They were given their freedom, so... 1776 =/= 1948. No First Amendment, No Second Amendment. These people are slaves of the state. They just don't know it.

It is the final arbiter of the law. A perceived loss of credibility in the judiciary could destabilize the entire legal system.
