For the first time in a democratic country....a journalists gets 20 years Rigorous Imprisonment for . Today, the Colombo high court gave the verdict of Tissanayagam trial, sentencing the journalist for rigorous imprisonment for 20 years.
If the Sri Lankan president was true to his words then he would have pardoned this journalist and gained praise throughout the world. Hope Sri Lanka does not become a joke of a democracy like Zimbabwe.
Clear shift of the regime into a dictatorship. War criminals need to be in power to escape from justice...suppression of freedom,even when the war is over,is a clear indicator of the shift into a totalitarian regime .
Singalese heartless people who are celebrating the missary doen to tamils .. will soon see the real face of a dictatorship.
i feel pity for this guy .. GOSL cant wish their dirty hands by sending a innocent person to jail . they killed civilians too .. i guess he l win the appeal .. come on we are so many criminals than him outside ...

Sri lankan regime once again showed its racist face to the world. This is a racist judgement- in order to silence critics , espacially tamils.
Sl showed the world it is against tamils--Ltte was just an excuse.

3,000 tamils died in 1983. All killers escaped. Yes, you can kill but don't write...

In Sri Lankan you can kill 20,000 people BUT DON't WRITE...
It is a killers land. Not a writers land. Thats it.
