Sri Lanka: Attack on Sirasa TV

Categories: South Asia, Sri Lanka, Freedom of Speech, Media & Journalism, War & Conflict

Dare To Be Different terms the attack on the Sirasa TV [1] premises at Pannipitiya, Sri Lanka as “the nastiest ever attack on the media freedom in Sri Lanka”. The blog says: “The motives were apparent. Somebody badly wants to silence Sirasa TV.” Lakbima blog [2], like some other Sri Lankan blogs, thinks that Sirasa TV promotes terrorism and hints that it might be an insider job.
