Nil Balakaya takes over from Prabhakaran :Tangalle high security zone a killing field

(Lanka-e-News- 05.June.2014, 9.30PM) The high security zone of Tangalle town where the Carlton house of Medamulana MaRa is situated was turned into battlefield in much the same way as was the war in Mulliwaikal because those individuals who turn against the Rajapakses are being murdered in cold blood and in broad daylight. 

Some days ago , an attempt was made in broad daylight in front of the court premises to kill an individual who came to the Tangalle court for a case , while a friend of his of the village , was murdered brutally by shooting in broad daylight in the middle of the Town .

The victim of yesterday’s murder is a father of three children. He works as a conductor in a private bus . When the bus was readying to leave after loading the bus , two individuals who arrived in a motor bike with helmets covering their faces have inquired ‘where is Amila who escaped in the shooting incident on the earlier occasion?’ When they were told ‘ I do not know.’ The assassins had exclaimed ‘ you are his closest friend , aren’t you,’ and one of them had shot him in his head after drawing out a pistol.

The conductor Prabath , the victim had immediately fallen down dead. Though Amila had criminal charges against him , his friend Prabath was having no such charges. He was only a very close friend of Amila. As is common in present the lawless climate stoked by the Rajapakse regime , though there were policemen and a large crowd when this tragedy took place in the middle of the town , and mind you in the high security zone , the killing was done without any hindrance and with complete impunity. Moreover , the assassins were able to flee the scene unobstructed. 

The reason for the attempted murder on Amila Rajapakse by shooting on the 22 nd of May was his becoming an enemy of the Nil Balakaya after deserting it . It had come to light that it was on the instructions of Namal Rajapakse this crime was attempted , and his co ordinating secretary Moorthy Kodituwakku , an army officer was involved. Lanka e news via two separate earlier reports revealed that the Tangalle police OIC and crime division OIC rendered assistance to the criminals led by Pallikudawe Ukkuwa who made that attempt.
