A video recording of Prof. Ashu Marasinghe, former advisor to President Ranil Wickremesinghe, allegedly showing him sexually abusing a dog has gone viral after it was released by SJB member Hirunika Premachandra to the media today.
Prof. Ashu Marasinghe, former Advisor to the President and former Member of Parliament, resigned earlier today, just a few hours ahead of Premachandran's press briefing, citing personal reasons.
Premachandra said the pet dog was owned by a woman named Adarshaa Karadana who had been Marasinghe’s girlfriend for two years after meeting him online.
Karadana told the media that she had been Marasinghe’s girlfriend after meeting him online on Facebook, and had lived with him for two years. She said she had become suspicious after the dog’s behavior changed.
She alleged that when she confronted Marasinghe, he physically abused her and she herself had been physically abused by Marasinghe throughout their relationship of two years.
Premachandra claimed that Marasinghe could be guilty of offenses under Sri Lanka’s Penal Code and could face up to 20 years in prison.
Karadana said she had reported Marasinghe’s bestiality to the President’s wife and the President’s Secretary, but that no action had been taken so far.
Karadana had also played an active role in the Aragalaya at Galle Face.

This Professor did a horrible thing and he is exposed, the shame is too much. The humane way to handle this situation would have been to confront the Professor with the evidence and then demand he resign from all public duties permanently and that his shameful crime would not be made public. That should have been the proper way and the Sri Lankan way to handle such a case.

The law is same for all (including lawyers and perverts) Saturday, 24 December 2022 07:21 AM
Dear Attorney, That's the Sri Lankan way to handle it! That's why Sri Lanka is in such a mess. That allows the perpetrator to resign quietly and move to another job and do the same thing again. Name and shame him in public and this becomes a warning to others. Well done Ms Premachandra for naming this despicable learned pervert. I salute your courage.

@Attorney, beside being a Lawyer you must have been brought up in a good family to have such a humane attitude to people like this Professor. But most people not just in Sri Lanka are brought up in harsh economic and social environment that they grow to become devoid of humanity or forgiveness even though they may be attending temples , mosques and churches regularly. As you have suggested the Sri Lankan way of handling this Professor would have been to remove him from his position permanently but not to disgrace him to the public and let him live his rest of his life peacefully as a human being.

Unbelievable, utter disgrace to mankind. Couldn't he have gone out and paid for sex, plenty of women he could have slept with, local and foreigner's too. I doubt he will face any charges as no laws for having sex with a animal, as far as I know. However, the shame and disgrace he would have to face for the rest of his life is like a life sentence.

Please do not cover up the investigation because he once had the ear of an elite politico in the country.

In Adarshaa's FB she identifies herself as 'a Famme Fatale'. A Femme Fatale is a mysterious, intelligent, beautiful, and seductive woman whose charms ensnare anyone who meets her, often leading them into deadly traps and webs of crime. It appears that she got Ashu to do this act and recorded it in order to bring him to disrepute. May be Hirunika was also involved in setting up this set up.

I have always felt that Sri Lankans are not really civilized people. That is why I couldn't live in SL. Even now, when I visit SL, I see beneath the surface something akin to animal like behaviour - and that is not limited to lower classes of society. And the so called ATTORNEY who suggests that this should be swept under the carpet is one of them. Sri Lankans just need to get more civilized. It will take time. The Sri Lankan way is to hide all their hideous behaviors. All the skeletons locked up in the cupboards. But I know see things slowly changing. It will take another 20 years at least for SL to really get civilized.
