(Lanka-e-News - 12.July.2015, 8.00PM) Mahinda Rajapakse whom Maithripala Sirisena is toiling to bring back to power after himself committing a monumental and historic betrayal against the very people who elected Maithripala to power , is the infamous ex president whose name by now is synonymous with corruption , murder , mayhem and vice . A deposed president who was not only associated with all the cardinal sins on earth but also sadistically enjoyed encouraging those who practised them.
Here is one such instance : during the Rajapakse brutal corrupt era , judges were appointed according to Rajapakse’s whims and fancies , that is his cronies and lickspittles without considering their antecedence and character . Consequently, rapists too were elevated to these exalted positions. One case in point is that of Sarath Abrew a supreme court (SC) judge. Abrew became infamously famous for committing rape and sexual molestation on the domestics (women) who were employed in his residence while holdng the exalted position of a supreme court (SC) judge. Mahinda gave protection to Abrew in these crimes , and Abrew as a reciprocal gesture gave unfair judgments in favor of Mahinda. One such recent judgment was that given in favor of Gotabaya Rajapakse who faced criminal charges, that the latter shall not be arrested.
By now , a number of rapes committed by Sarath Abrew during the Rajapakse era have come to light , and Lanka e news inside information division is in possesion of details supported by copious , concrete and cogent evidence .Some young women unable to face the world and bear the injustice has gone so far as to consume poison. Though these crimes ought to be investigated and such scoundrels of judges duly punished, so far Abrew has been protected .
This was committed in the year 2003, and the name of the victim is Manjula residing in an estate among laborers , in Chelseawatte , Bandarawela. Abrew got her down as a domestic to work in his house. To Nilusha Damayanthi in the latest attempted rape case too , Abrew did what he did to Manjula – forcibly stripping her nude, and when she resisted , he threatened her ‘ if you do not give in to me , I shall file charges against you (falsely) that you robbed the jewelry in my house, and report to the police.As I am a judge , the police will not go beyond what I say.’ The servant girl was nonplussed and helpless. Next thing was Sarath Abrew the sex starved animal has raped her.
Since he launched physical assaults on her often, one day this servant unable to endure the suffering has fled from the house one night, and somehow gone back to Chelseawatte.
During that period , the DIG in charge of Bandarawela was Thenabadu, a close friend of Abrew. The latter informed the DIG that Manjula fled from his home after robbing jewelry from his house, and arranged for her arrest. Thenabadu has then sent a posse of police officers to the victim’s house to arrest her as though to conduct a massive operation to capture a hard core terrorist .When the police surrounded the poor girl’s house , the latter in fear drank poison. This victim was then taken to hospital by the police. Fortunately or unfortuantely the girl ecaped death.Thereafter when the actual truth came to light , Thenabadu suppressed the whole episode and rescued his pal Abrew.
The police report pertaining to this incident is still available , and Manjula is still living . Therefore a fair and impartial investigation can be conducted , and Abrew can be duly punished.
The other rape crime committed by Abrew as reported to Lanka e news inside information division
This took place in the year 2010 and the victim in this instance was Sivalingam Sivanambal residing at 241, Shanthi pura , Nuwara Eliya. Her I.D. No. is 80 5572175 X .
Sarath Abrew got down this youth to work as a servant in his house. He then made his lustful advances towards her in the same way as before with the other domestics., and forced her to remove her clothes , while brandishing his fireram and threatening her .
This 30 years old young woman having no powers to resist him ran away from this rapist’s house after three weeks. Though she tried to stop a three wheeler no one responded. Ultimately one three wheeler driver had stopped by. After she entered it , upon inquiries made by the three wheeler driver she has disgorged the whole tale of her woe, when he had requested her to make a complaint to the police.
With the asistance of the three wheeler driver , the following day , she had visited the Mirihana women and children crime division to lodge a complaint. The police realising ths complaint is against Abrew the SC judge , they had made attempts to camouflage it, and without recording her complaint they throw her from pillar to post while postponing the recording of the complaint . Therafter following death threats , she withdrew her complaint . It is noteworthy , during that period it was Deshabandu Tennekoon the notorious bootlicker of Rajapakses who was the OIC of Mirihana police.
Another servant by the name of Leelawathie in Abrew’s house had however come forward to give evidence for this Tamil woman, the rape victim . Hence in this instance too an impartial investigation can be instituted into this , and punishment meted out to Abrew the rapist .
This incident took place in the year 2010
Abrew has a disabled child. He also gets down young girls as servants to his home under the pretext that he needs the servant to look after her. The child is 15 years old Nayomi Gayathri Kaveeshwari.She had her education at Lindsay Girls School , Colombo. Abrew sexually molests her, and when she resists , she is assaulted .In this connection there are several written complaints made to the police . Nevertheless using Mahinda Rajapakse’s influence Abrew has successfully suppressed all these cases.
The foregoing exposures (evidence available) are just three of the many sexual assaults committed on young women by this sex starved rapist Abrew.
Can such a sadistic rapist be allowed to go on making young girls his rape victims without let or hindrance , and with impunity even if he is enjoying the patronage and influence of Mahinda Rajapakse ? How could Mt.Lavinia magistrate Shahabdeen release on personal bail sans any condition such a notorious rapist ?
Interestingly in England ,a culprit found guilty of sexual assault committed on a girl 30 years ago when she was in that country was taken up by the courts of England recently to mete out justice on behalf of the victim. Finally , the rapist a monk Pahalagama Somarathne of Croyden temple , London was sentenced to 8 yers in jail , underlining how cruel, grave and heinous are rapes considered in law . This victim a Sri Lankan told court that she waited for 30 long years until her father passed away , as she did not wish her father to suffer mental agony by instituting legal action while he was living. This case and judgment delivered illustrate that effluxion of time is irrelevant in rape crimes , and civilised societies do not hesitate to mete out punishment to rapists regardless of the time taken to institute action.
In the circumstances , the police and courts of SrI Lanka irespective of the influence used (political and otherwise) by the culprit and without paying heed to his own status are duty bound in a civilised society to take action against Supreme court judge Sarath Abrew vis a vis the cogent and glaring evidence corroborating the so many crimes committed by him , no matter the pressures exerted by erstwhile Rajapakse regime notorious for protecting rapists including Abrew , murderers , frauds and crooks.
As a news media that always espouses the cause of justice and truth , acting on behalf of the oppressed, downtrodden and victimised people , we hope at least now appropriate steps will be taken to punish this serial sex starved rapist who thrived criminally under the Rajapakses, despite being a judge of the SC who should have therefore on the contrary shown much greater respect to his lofty profession and the laws of the country.

How so ironic? This moron decides to rape tamil women on all three occasions. On top of being a rapist, is he also a racist of some sort?
Such are the people who have been dispensing justice in this country!
Oh God! Punish this animal with a sickness that will rot him to death. No human can punish him enough.

This chap Abrew sure has a disabled child but really does his manhood get "disabled" when he meets his wife in the judge's bedchamber?
