Protest should be consistent to get credibility regardless of who the victims are. This is a single issue where the whole country should condemn this. If you protest for only a section of the people then it becomes another white van

Why you say lawlessness there is law in Sri Lanka it is Sri Lankan law. Well if you can just take time to understand the sufferings of the Tamil people this article had achieved something.

In response to commentator ‘Ray’ I ask why shouldnt people be protesting against it now? Just because the issue has being going on for some time this in no way validates it or makes it ok and why does ethnicity need to be brought into the debate when no where in the article are the victims referred to by their ethinicity. This type of comment only allows it to be ok for others to adopt this same way of thinking. Never the less the crux of this issue is that people are dying. Whether it’s because they speak out as activists or undergo shady business deals everyone has the right to democracy and no one should take the law into their own hands. I commend those who choose to risk their own lives by protesting against these ‘white van’ attacks.
