Post Sonali Samarasinghe: A widow on the run 
Independent,  Sun Feb  8 19:41:37 EST 2009

    There had been previous incidents, threats and warnings scrawled in red paint. And on that very morning, when they had driven before work to the chemist's shop, two sinister-looking men on a large black motorbike raced past their car. Lasantha Wickrematunga, a newspaper editor, and his wife, Sonali Samarasinghe, were convinced they were being tailed.

I don't understand why everyone called him as Journalist?  Once he was asupporter for Chandrika.. he didn't get much from her.. then supoort for Ranil... and had aluxury life during his PM time.. I would like to call him as a politician.. You know what happens for bad politicians in country like Sri Lanka?  He should have right balance news rather than spreading false information....

I never thought that generalist are so foolish to tell openly, “When finally I am killed, it will be the government that kills me”  Make hay while the Sun shines.
Is there a better time to take revenge from this generalist by any other guy whose wrongdoings are uncovered?
If this generalist or the paper he/she works has uncovered only the government wrongdoings?
Can we name few influential and/or very rich Ceylonese whose wrongdoings are not uncovered by Sunday Leader? Can bad guys imagine that The Sunday Leader will be a friend in future to do a mischief and hide?
But please if you support terrorist elimination, don’t harm the generalist anymore.
Can we expect this present Government to put all its recourses to protect this foolish generalist and other similar ones, leaving Tiger terrorist to take a part of Ceylon?

What the ordinary public likes to know is whether LW was insured either in SL or overseas ? if so for how much ? Who is the beneficiary ? When was the beneficiary included ? Has any compensation locally & in overseas been paid ? if so to whom & how much ? This information is also cruical for the ongoing inquiries to find the killer. There are many local or overseas private investigators who can be hired to probe this killing irrespective of the official probes
