Breakfast served to a patient at the Hambanthota General hospital today. #HealthCrisis in #SriLanka keeps getting worse every day. The solution isn't opening paid wards in state hospitals but increasing funding 4 #FreeHelth & regulating the mafia bringing down poor quality meds.
This was how police dragged the #journalist@Uduwaragedara out of a trishaw for videoing them. After this, he was beaten severely & denied medical treatment.
Where the hell are the Western defenders of democracy like @USAmbSL?

“Tharindu Uduwaragedara who was arrested & assaulted by the police is a brave web journalist who has not been frightened to speak out against the corrupt and powerful responsible for the sorry state of our country. His arrest and ill-treatment is another example of the abuse of power by the Sri Lankan Police and the Government” Bar Association Former President Saliya Peiris
Nazi propaganda played a vital role in justifying and getting the support of the Germans for the Jewish holocaust.
In the same way, it appears that there has been propaganda in Sri Lanka in order to justify and promote enforced disappearances as well.
Make him accountable
@Welikumbura Irony is they put people who responsible and contributed to the bankruptcy of the country for the committee to investigate financial bankruptcy. .
