    We are taking action to enforce law & order to ensure security across the Kandy district. The armed forces, STF & police have been deployed & instructed to be prepared to control any kind of tension. I appeal to the public to act peacefully to safeguard law & order in your areas.

        Why does you're government and police lack the backbone to arrest the main two culprits in the #Kandy attacks? Can saffron robed thugs run riot but still enjoy impunity even under this government? If you really want to stop this and put an end to these racist attacks, ARREST THEMpic.twitter.com/Jny9iYFw7w

        I don't expect a racist like you to understand this, but if you can here's a copy of the story in the Daily News and a print screen on the arrest of the four Muslims who attacked the victim, Kumarasinghe.

        There is a saying in Sinhala 'Modayata Beheth Naha' - so I'll leave it at that.

        I suspect some elements from government created the situation get political mileage. We should be intelligent enough to see through it and make sure we wont repeat another '83. Extremists from both communities should be isolated and punished.

        You let it spiral out of control and now you talk about action? This should have done when when they killed the driver. You have let unscrupulous people from Muslim and Sinhala community escalate it to communal violence. I suspect you are a architect as well.

        Hon Sir. I am afraid they have failed so far in protecting the innocent. Three days have passed and still the riots are not under control. Very unsafe.
