Only now, these special favored citizens with special laws unto themselves are now living like normal ordinary citizens and facing laws that any ordinary citizens will face when involved in notorious crimes.

Hope and pray they get a long jail sentence to send a message to the corrupt that they will not get away for ever like the last 70 years. BUT MARK MY WORDS THESE POLITICALLY CONNECTED SCOUNDRELS WILL BE OUT SOON. Such is the lot of the Sri Lankans

Why were all those vehicles not found during the previous government? These things should have been investigated by law enforcement agencies regardless of who is in power. What is missing here then? That's how developed countries work. If SL wants to be a developed country it has to develop in every sense.

Well its simple, the law in the country is not strong nor independent rather it swings to the sides of each sitting government.

Lohan, Johnston and the likes dreamt that power will stay with them eternally and that they can continue with plundering the country and intimidation of people. Sorry, Anura is not a wheeler dealer like Ranil, to bail you out every time.

You know what Lohan said when he was remanded? He said "I'll be back" like Terminator.

Well done NPP , looking forward to a corruption free society where law treat all equally. I know some people call it gimmicks, but every little step matters to take our lawless country back to civilized one.

Please apply the Law to the fullest extent to both, if found guilty. No special treatment, thank you. This is the thug who threaten a prisoner with a pistol pointing to his head during a visit as the State Minister and Rajapakse did not take any actions. He was also involved in a few murders, but escaped using political power. Time has come.

Both the husband and the wife have to face the consequences of their wrong doings. Life imprisonment is ideal for them.

NPP talked about USD 18 billion but now going after peanuts to get public to vote for them. These offenses generally require a fine which is double the amount of taxes due. Putting them in Prison is for the political revenge.

This is a lesson for everyone, not only politicians. Anyone who thinks that they can get away with fraud, wickedness and evil pay attention. Someday, in your lifetime, your actions will be exposed and there will be consequences. There is no way out unless you repent.

NPP Government must go after those who stole US $ billions from SL wealth. Arresting those who keep unregistered cars is OK, but NPP Government must arrest serial killers and take legal actions against them.
