Lankan News Replies

The High Security Zones (HSZ) established in Northern Sri Lanka will not be removed as they are essential to ensure the security in the region, the government spokesman said today.

Addressing media, Minister of Mass Media and Communication Keheliya Rambukwella said today that the war against the terrorists was won due to such HSZs and those security rings are mandatory for the country`s security.

As the state lands are not available to maintain HSZs in the North the government is forced to use private land in strategic areas, the Minister explained.

Tamil political parties continually demand the removal of high security zones from their land in the North.

Wimal Weerawamsa and Kehelika Rumbukwela add fuels to the fire - the accusation that Sri Lankan govt and ministers are racists and hell bent on violating the human rights of Tamils and Muslims. If the LTTE is destroyed what need is there for the presence of the army among the Tamil civilian population? Has there been any terrorist incident after May 2009 to justify the continued occupation of the army?

Sri lanka govt. and ministers are racists and hell bent on violating the human rights of Tamils and Muslims.

Who chased Muslims out of Jaffna and violated human rights? It was Tamils who chased Muslims out of Jaffna. What is this recent passion Tamils have on Muslims? Muslims are not an ethnic group but a religious group. Sri lankan Muslims are a group of people consist of Tamils, Malay, very few Singhalese, Bohora etc. World Muslims includes all nationalities.

I have seen idiots but not a one like this saleemtariq.
What do you know about security management? Have you got any slightest idea how security net work works in a country? If you do not have better to keep you damn mouth shut without showing your stupidity.
In fact in Sri lanka, Govt has the all the powers to establish security zones where it is necessary and it is for the safety of the people and the country, to avoid future terrorism. Because we have released thousands of LTTEers without killing.
Next time you will ask why establish police stations in North and East.

'Security' is the excuse that the Israelis used to gobble up the lands of the Palestinians for over 60 years and they are yet to find it in spite of the UNQUESTIONED SUPPORT of the Sole Super Power and the West. Will Sri Lanka succeed where mighty Israel FAILED?

This is an INHERENTLY FOOLISH move by the govt., no doubt prodded on by the Sinhala Racists within, and is sure to reignite the war once more. Can the country afford another War?

P007 the Idiot.

Sri Lanka has burned not only the fingers but the whole body because of lack of a proper system.

They should not do that same thing again.

You don't know what you are talking about. The way Ban is tightening the noose, thanks to the 'brave soldiers' in the MR govt., may be the Tamils will get what they want without another war. Just wait and see.

These HSZ should not be removed at all.
Tamil tiger terrorists are still haunting in Tamilnadu.
Some so called 'politicians' there are helping terrorists in many ways to 'establish' a terrorist state in Sri Lanka.
Sri Lankan War Heros wiped out barbaric tiger terrorists from the Sri Lankan soil.
If the GOSL decides to remove the HSZ in the North due to pressure from the UN, UNP, India or any other inside or outside pressure, the Nation of Sri Lanka will go for another long and bloody war.....

HSZs are on the Sri Lankan territory which belong to the Independent and Sovereign State of Sri Lanka.
The SLDF have the right to camp where they want to guarantee the Peace and Stablility of that region.
Let the politicians do their job and the Military .... their work!

Who is right? We will wait and see if legality or illegality wins the day. Can any Sinhalese government seize the houses and lands of private citizens even if they are Tamils?
Resettlement and traditional Industries Minister Douglas Devananda said, he is in the process of legally handing over the lands in the North to their legitimate owners, in the regions where the High security zones are.

Davananda was making this statement following the announcement made by Minister Keheliya Rambukwella at a media briefing to inform the Cabinet decisions, on which occasion, he stated that even though the owners of lands in the high security zones have deeds lawfully, they will not be allocated back their lands
