Shavendra, do not worry the Aragalaya participants are peaceful until people in the government provokes them. Evidence, Presidential Palace storming.

Before you expect support from us to your forces, we want the discredited STF of the Police to be disbanded now. Not only today but also throughout this period the STF standout among the Military and the Police as the most violent entity against the peaceful protestors. The STF deliberately provoking peaceful protestors to become violent like themselves. When there is the Army and the normal Police, there is no need for a “Over trained Paramilitary Thugs Masquerading as Police “.

Why are you begging for our help now? We remember the guts you had under Gota. We will never forget how your officers treated the general public by kicking and shooting under the Rajapakse regime. Why don’t you show the same courage now as well. Why are you begging for our support like a dog now? Shame on you.
