Let the law take it’s course of action. Now the matter is “sub-judicial”. These incidents and much media coverage will definitively bring relief to the thousands of Muslims who were driven out of Mannar and especially Jaffana, robbed of all their belongings and their savings (women’s gold jewelery)in 1990 by the ruthless LTTE, then. Rishad Bathideen was and is the MOSES to the people of the North. He will have divine blessings to be the victor and lead his people back to Mannar and to the North to resettle, Insha Allah.
yes that is 100% right. these racial hindus chased muslims without any thing. now these ass hole hindus can not do any thing.
