The Neth FM program Balumgala first revealed about this blackleg dressed with a robe.
Balumgala is the only one program in Sri Lanka conducted by a few very brave young journalists to meet the national needs.
We warmly welcome the judge’s decision.

The basterd got what he deserved.
20 years should be 20. Decision must take very quickly against this type of people who destructive Sri Lankan nation, not only for this monk
Truth was revealed by Neth FM. This bastard was not a Buddhist monk but a rogue attired as a monk to inveigle stupid men and women into believing him as a genuine person. It is very easy for any mother’s son to robe himself with a shafforn clothe and do all the nasty things.
See the slogan on his advertisement. It seems he had exactly written what was going to happen to him according to his bad karma. Jailed in retribution for his crimes. 20 years imprisonment is not enough but, plus castration for raping suits him right. His inmates will take well care of this cad.
