The conflict between Mervyn and the members of the Council was based on a garbage clearing issue , though Mervyn has never been a direct garbage cleaner. The unloading of garbage at the earlier place was obstructed by Mervyn . Consequently , the whole of Kelaniya became a place of accumulation of garbage and the stench created because of Mervyn was unbearable to the whole of Kelaniya.. The Kelaniya local body which was driven into difficulties thereby , held discussions with the City development authority, and got ready to dump the garbage at a place in Manelgama. A court order was also obtained . According to the residents of the area , it is Mervyn Silva who was not a direct garbage cleaner was the one who created all the garbage problems and stench. When this arrangement was being made ,again Minister Mervyn who has an affinity for garbage deals has obstructed the dumping of garbage at Manelgama. When Manelgama residents , the police and the local body members held discussions today (14) , to resolve this issue , Mervyn’s garbage traits had prompted him to use his henchmen and stooges to scream and stage venomous protests causing disruptions . The member who objected to this obstruction and stood up to give answers was Hasitha Madawala .The latter is a target of attack of Mervyn. The member explained that a court order has been obtained to dump garbage at Manelgama on condition that it shall be covered up thereafter. Subsequent to this , there arose a huge uproarious situation .At that moment DIG Anura Senanayake who was there had arrested the Alliance member , Hasitha Madawala, enemy of Mervyn alleging that he had threatened a civilian who was there.
