Sri Lanka: Police inaction as Muslim shops torched by Buddhists

There is but one shithole in South Asia & this shithole can't even play cricket in their own nation & has to go to other countries to hold matches.



Imagine if it was other way around.

If it was the Buddhist SL cricketer telling Muslim Pakistani cricketer to convert to Buddhism and go straight to heaven, I am sure it would be treated as a joke as well.......especially if the match was being played in Pakistan.

I can imagine whole of Pakistan laughing at that hilarious Joke ;)

We gauge shit holes based on communal violence, not cricket. :lol:

Don't worry little frog, we were the people that brought hinduism to you, and also spread bhuddism to ancient chinese territories. Now it's time for you to learn about Islam. :D
 
The Beast Rides Again

TISARANEE GUNASEKARA on 03/07/2018

The chief prelates were silent in July 1983 as well.

There is an image from Black July I will carry with me for the rest of my life: a Tamil woman being pushed into the roaring fire of a shop by a mob in Kirulapone, as the police watched. I still remember that she was thin and not tall, had salt-and-pepper hair and was wearing a sari. I couldn’t see her face and I didn’t hear her cry.

I saw the incident from a moving bus. I couldn’t have saved her even if I managed to jump out. But such logic cannot dim the memory of horror and failure I carry with me. Now the horror is happening again. Another minority is being targeted. And we, the majority community in whose name the violence is being perpetrated, are failing to stop the marauders, to protect the victims or even to condemn the horror in loud enough voices.


Black July - Massacre of 3000 Tamils , burning and looting Tamil properties worth 300 million, 150,000 Tamils made homeless that started the Civil war

rest of the world gauges shitholes based on if anyone is interested in being in that country :D

Dear little tadpole, the day you want to hear truth about religion, let me know, we will go to some neutral forums and have a frank debate there...that is if you dare ;)

Let's be honest. Hindus may convert to Islam, but logically a Muslim would never convert to Hinduism as it is a regressive religion, especially the version you saffron small dicks practice. If a Muslim leaves their religion, it's for atheism, not Hinduism. :lol:


Even If all of Pakistan leaves Islam, we still wouldn't associate with you filthy Indians. And that is the truth.

You can't debate religion here,
Yet you can do it, because we all know nothing would happen if YOU discuss Hinduism here on PDF.

Like I stated, if you have GUTS, let's go to a neutral place and have a go at it. Or just like your kind, you are devoid of guts? ;)

I already explained to you that Muslims think Hinduism is retarded. If some of them think Islam is retarded, why the **** would they follow your fairy tales? Let's use logic here. :lol:
 

I was only calling for introspection. I was not saying anything against Islam. @waz @The Eagle

Update on Kandy and related incidents as at 06th March, 2018 (10.00 a.m.)

Key Updates
1. Police curfew imposed in the Kandy administrative district, to combat a wave of racially
motivated violence targeting minority Muslims unleashed by mobs following a personal
dispute that resulted in the death of a Sinhalese man (on Saturday morning) was lifted at 6

a.m. today. Police Commandos (STF)/Military patrolling the area will continue according to
police reports.
2. The Minister of Education had directed the closure of all schools in the district on 6th March.
3. Reports of dozens of houses, business establishments belonging to Muslims being burnt down
and at least 3 Mosques
(Muslim places of worship) being burnt by mobs that included
Buddhist monks

4. One youth from Muslim community is reportedly dead, after mobs attacked his house and
burnt the house
while the individual was inside the house
5. Except for a statement issued late in the night of 5th of March 2018 by the Director General of
Government Information Department, there has been surprising silence from both Prime
Minister Wickramasinghe (who is also the Minister in charge of Police) and President Sirisena
on the incidents.
Background
Kandy
An altercation had taken place allegedly between a group of allegedly drunkard men (later
identified as Muslims) and a 41 year-old Sinhalese man on 22 February, resulting in him being
seriously injured. Though there are various claims of the actual reason for the altercation, none
were related to any racial or ethnic motives.

 It is widely believed that the assault was due to a traffic incident. The assailants, residents of
Ambagahalanda, Digana were arrested by the police, while a three-wheeler was also taken into
custody.
 The victim, M.G.Kumarasinghe succumbed to his injuries at the Kandy hospital on Saturday the
3
rd of March 2018 and his funeral was due to take place on the evening of 5 March.
 Immediately after the death at Hospital on the morning of Saturday the 3

rd March, local
Buddhist temple monks and Muslim community leaders along with a Senior Superintendent of
Police had a meeting to “assure that the private affair resulting in a death did not end up as a
racial issue”.
 It was unanimously agreed that community leaders from both sides will proactively work
towards maintaining law and order, and until the night of Sunday the 4th of March, it was calm.
Muslim community representatives on Sunday went to the temple in the village of the
deceased and met with community leaders and handed over a monetary contribution towards
funeral expenses and committed more donation to the family as a goodwill gesture
. They also
detailed how the community got together in making sure assailants surrendered to Police to
enable legal process to begin in this killing.
 However it is suspected that the status-quo changed as mobs came in buses from other parts
of the country and coincidentally 4 prominent anti-Muslim extremists (BBS leader monk
Gnanasara, Mahasohon Balakaya group leader Amith, controversial ‘activist’ Dan Priyasad and
notorious monk Ampitiye Sumana from Batticaloa) went to Kandy on the night of Sunday the
4
th of March 2018 onwards
.

Additional Notes – Earlier last week violence was reported in Ampara in the Eastern Province:
 Four shops and a mosque were damaged and at least three persons were injured in a clash
when a group went on rampage in the Eastern town of Ampara on the early morning of 27th of
February.
 The violence which took a racial tone is said to have begun after a group of Sinhala youth
alleged that “Sterilization Pills” were added to a meal served by a Muslim owned restaurant to
a Sinhalese customer.
 Prime Minister Ranil Wickramasinghe ordered an investigation on the conduct of the police in
this matter as the suspects of the violence had been produced to courts and bailed without
objection from Police.
Reactions and responses to Incidents in Kandy
- Government
 It was reported that President Maithripala Sirisena had directed the police and security sector
to “hold an unbiased, independent investigation into incidents at Digana Kandy today”. It also
said that President instructed government officials to start a “new special programme” with all
responsible parties to create peaceful situation in the area.
 Finance Minister Mangala Samaraweera taking to social media noted that “Enough is enough.
Inciting racial violence must be made a non-bailable offence and politicians who give leadership
to such violence should be deprived of their civic rights”.
 The Government of Sri Lanka “strongly and unequivocally condemns the recent sporadic
incidents of violence that had sparked off in Ampara and Digana,” the Government Information
Director Sudarshana Gunawardana noted in a statement on behalf of the government.
 Prime Minister Ranil Wickremesinghe in his capacity as the Law & Order Minister has ordered
another inquiry into the recent attacks on Muslim establishments in Ampara, as complaints of
Police inaction have surfaced.
 The Office for National Unity and Reconciliation (ONUR) in a statement on 3 March noted that
it was the responsibility of the Government to ensure that immediate action is instituted
against all those who are responsible for the incidents. “We must learn lessons from the past
and do all that is required to prevent a recurrence of those tragic times.... Let us not allow a
small group of extremists to turn us back from our desired goal!”

Shh..Why stop the hatred?
Do you know how many liberal hindus I converted to BJP/RSS just by using material from PDF? :D

Buddy, let the hatred flow. Every post targeting Hindus & Hinduism on PDF is goldmine. ;)
 
FB is banned in SL and apparently the Ministry of Defence and the TRCL is probing them to find who helped organize the attacks
 
they are, if one of your grown kids start being a spoiled brat and disobey the order, would you not want to kick him/her out?

After seeing all your posts and comments, I'd say you're such an idiot who has no idea what's going on. So a few retards demand for Sharia Law in your country and your mofo so-called peaceful monks show up their reality through burning the shops of those who have nothing to do with it. Is your State really weak that it requires these monks to defend the ideology lol?
 
Sri Lanka blocks social media as anti-Muslim rioting flares

Religious violence flared anew in the hills of central Sri Lanka on Wednesday despite a state of emergency, with Buddhist mobs sweeping through towns and villages, burning Muslim homes and businesses and leaving victims barricaded inside mosques.

The government ordered popular social media networks blocked in an attempt to stop the violence from spreading, and thousands of police and soldiers spread out across the worst-hit areas.

The police also ordered a curfew across much of the region for a third straight day, trying to calm the situation.

Hundreds of Muslim residents of Mullegama, a village in the hills of central Sri Lanka, barricaded themselves inside a local mosque after Buddhist mobs attacked their homes Wednesday morning accusing them of stealing the donation box of a nearby temple. At least 20 Muslim homes appeared badly damaged and flames engulfed one two-story home.

The Muslims hiding in the mosque, speaking on condition of anonymity because of fear of reprisals, said police prevented them from saving their property and did nothing to stop the attackers.

One Sinhala Buddhist man who was part of the attack died in an explosion and another man was injured, according to the men in the mosque. A local Buddhist man said the Muslims were using improvised explosives, which the men in the mosque denied.

The police officials said they could not immediately identify what caused the explosion or who was responsible.

Mullegama Piyaratana , a Buddhist monk at the temple, said the attacks on the Muslim homes took place after some people pelted the temple with rocks late Tuesday. He would not identify who attacked the temple.

In the nearby small town of Katugastota, Ikram Mohamed, a Muslim, stood outside the wreckage of the textile shop where he worked, after Sinhalese Buddhist mobs set it on fire. He and the owner had closed the shop Wednesday morning when police announced the curfew. They returned to find it destroyed, and clothing and dressmaker dummies smoking in the ruins.

"There are many good Sinhalese people," he said. "This is being done by a few jealous people."

Muslims own many of the small businesses in Sri Lanka, a fact that many believe has helped make them targets as Buddhist-Muslim relations have worsened in recent years amid the rise of hard-line Buddhist groups, which accuse Muslims of forcing people to convert and destroying sacred Buddhist sites.

Area residents said mobs swept through at least two towns in the central hills Wednesday, attacking two mosques and a string of Muslim-owned shops and buildings.

Sri Lanka has long been divided between the majority Sinhalese, who are overwhelmingly Buddhist, and minority Tamils who are Hindu, Muslim and Christian. The country remains deeply scarred by its 1983-2009 civil war, when Tamil rebels fought to create an independent homeland.

While the rebels were eventually crushed, the Buddhist-Muslim religious divide has taken hold in recent years.
