(October 06, Colombo, Sri Lanka Guardian) We extend our deepest sympathies to the members of the Family of the Late General Janaka Perera, and the families of all those perons who were the victims of terrorism.
It is sad and most regrettable that the General Janaka Perera had been another victim of the terrorists. All functions of what ever nature or what ever numbers of persons present should be carefully verified before the arrival of the VIPs. At the present moment it would be wise to stop gatherings of this nature with the VIPs, as the desperate terrorists will go to any extent to cause damage to the Nation. General Janaka Perera, was a National Hero the Nation was proud of, it is a great loss we will live to regret.
The persons in-charge of security should be "doubly" vigilant. To have those special metal checking instruments to pass around the bodies of all persons entering in to the premises. And there should be one entrance to such functions all other entrances being closed, and placed under vigilance of a Security personnel.
If the police questions all the persons that had been present at the function they may be able to identify the black tiger terrorist who was the "bomb". - Sri Lanka Guardian
