MaRa paying homage to Jesus augurs ill for Christians! their two places of worship attacked on same day

(Lanka-e-News-12.Jan.2014, 11.30PM) The Rajapakse regime which is notorious for diverting the attention of the people from their unsolved burning issues had employed its criminal extremist monks who are now functioning as a paramilitary force of the regime to attack two Christian places of worship today alone. One of them is a Christian religious center at Hikkaduwa and the other is at Pitipana , Homagama.

The Rajapakse extremist criminal monks have yesterday night tried to set fire to the Christian religious center run in a house at Pitipana by pouring petrol. The front room of the house had suffered slight damaged as a result As usual no suspect had been arrested so far.

The other Christian religious center is at Hikkaduwa where religious activities had been carried out for the last nearly 16 years. Criminal monks of extremist Buddhist organizations and some civilian marauders had broken into the venue and wreaked havoc while the police were idly watching and enjoying.

At the beginning the police had however obstructed the criminals from entering , but the criminal monks have gained entry through the backdoor and harassed the devotees who were praying . The women and children had got frightened because they were not getting protection from the police.

Owing to this violent commotion there was a traffic congestion on the Galle road near Hikkaduwa. Later, following an illegal assurance given by the police to these criminal monks that this religious place will be evacuated , the Rajapakse paramilitary criminal monks have dispersed. 

What a disgrace ! not even before a week had elapsed since the country’s chief , Medamulana MaRa returned to the Island along with John Amaratunge , the opposition chief organizer after visiting the place of birth of Christ to pay homage , these two despicable attacks were launched by his paramilitary criminal monks on the very places of worship of Christ.

What a pity ! what a waste of piety !!
