AI summary generated by gpt-5.5
Chathura Galappaththi criticized the Government’s response to killings, alleging that it routinely labels victims as registered criminals or drug dealers as a ready-made justification. He argued that such explanations are simplistic and inadequate for addressing deaths or accountability.
Verbatim record (translated)
Machine-translated from Sinhala / Tamil / English¶ 01 Hon. Presiding Member, he says the deceased is a registered criminal. But every time there is a killing, the Government immediately says the victim was a criminal or drug dealer—this is their ready excuse. If that is your standard, even a child could do your job.
