Anandasangaree grieved over Pararajasingam's killing
TULF President V. Ananda Sangaree condemning the assassination of MP
Joe Parajasingham, said a new culture that has developed in killing
people in places of worship.
The release: "I very strongly condemn the brutal killing of Joseph
Pararajasingam.
Member of Parliament, a founder member and the senior Vice-President
of the TULF. Although there is difference of opinion between us the
mutual love and affection between me and his family continued with
utmost regard for each other.
The special quality of Joe's family is the hospitality they show in
treating their friends and constituents.
It is very unfortunate that there is no respect or value for human
life. Whether the victim is a king or an ordinary person, what is lost
is a valuable human life. Other than the Creator no one is empowered to
take another persons's life whatever justifiable treasons only may have.
A new culture that is developing is killing people in places of
workshop, which should be strongly condemned.
It is now hightime for the Government to use the emergency
regulations to demand the surrender of arms from all unauthorised
persons and to impose severe penalties for all those who possess arms
and for all those who have knowledge of such unauthorized possessions.
While conveying my deepest sympathies to the members of his family I
pray for the early recovery of Mrs. Sugunam Joseph and others injured in
this incident." |
