[asakurayoh]

US, UK and Canada, we are so perfect, world should follow us.
Sri Lanka: We were doing the same!!

[harindra]

The most MOST important is to jail these criminals who are running this country and return the money stolen by these crooks

[kaveeshathilakarathna]

First PM write tweet saying that he is deeply distressed about the firing then police opened fire after that, he published the tweet. That is what bloody rajapakshas do...

[anupgopalvarma]

People elected a looter Rajapaksas as the Government who controls 90 percentage of income of Sri Lanka which ultimately ends in tax haven accounts of them. What to expect more. More power to the people of Sri Lanka 🙏🙏🙏

[sandya]

Rajapaksa murderers will not change.
Killing the innocent is nothing for them.

[iroshan]

Gota go home. Worst president ever gotabaya rajapaksha

[MrAllen-mrrs]

I’m glad the hypocrites in Canada are concerned

[anomasamarasinghe]

This is very disturbing poor people in Sri Lanka got no food no transport. This president and his family after stealing everything from the poor country and from poor people still trying to be in power. His assets are 3 times more than the total debt in Sri Lanka.
It seems like that stealing is accepted innocent people cannot do anything. It seems police is supporting stealing and wrong doing as they can get the bribes from these kind of activities. People should rise against this now and should not stop .
