Rule
of Law, Cricket and Sri-Lankan Armchair Pundits
Sri-Lanka arm chair pundits wake up only when cricket is played.
They dare not utter a word (mums the word) when politicians
(sometimes in opposition) in power or officials stooges bending down
their back to politicians break the rules.
I will list a few for them to wake up from political slumber.
1. when a heroin dealer clears a consignment and when out Minister of
Buddha Sasana and PM signs the letter of clearance.
He is innocent.
2. When officers in the Inland Revenue clears a colossal amount of
money to bogus importers (for a over a decade), the law does not
apply.
Only one officer from a ring is convicted.
3. When spirits are imported in the name of cosmetics, the law does
not apply.
4. When police summarily execute an IRC, the law does not apply.
5. When a sitting judge entertain a woman in chamber, in recess, the
law does not apply.
6. When a politician is involved in gang rape, the case get prolonged
until the sitting judge, retires or elevated to a higher plane.
7. Law applies only a commander orders a pair of night vision
goggles.
8. When a sitting judge gives a verdict defending poor Advanced Level
students, the judge is convicted of misbehavior.
This is a land of contrasts.
The list is lengthy like Linux Python or the real Python.
I need not bore you with the rest.
Anything is possible in this land including in cricket.
