Guest guest Posted January 3, 2005 Report Share Posted January 3, 2005 Our foreign friends have received requests from a Sri lankan group who call them as an animal welfare group .That group is asking money to help Tsunami animalvictims in Sri Lanka. We inquired from the leading welfare workers and other people who have been in and around in these affected areas. We don`t need foreign aid to feed the animals .There are dogs in our temples . That is a usual thing.We can manage to feed them. Most of the Sri lankans who live abroad have sent enough foreign aid. If any of you have receive the request from that particular animal organisation of Sri lanka to send money for relief work ask them to not to help the dog killing Public health Veterinary Director who has killed innocent dogs in Sri lanka .That organisation has patronised animal cruelty. That is the best thing they can do for the animals.Please go through the letter which was sent by animal groups to the Prime Minister in June. Please send your money to Indonesia and other countries. Kala Santha Veterinary surgeon ---------- - Dear Prime Minister , We sent a petition to the Commissioner of Bribery and corruption to investigate the charges against Public Health Veterinary Director P.A.L Harischandra and Dr.Mrs. Mendis of Kotte Municipal Counciland other middlegrade officers. The commission refused to investigate the charges saying that these allegations doesn`t come under Bribery and corruption.The word Corrupt mean bad or wicked. If Government staff officers are allowed to work like terrorists we feel your country is an Uncivillised country.They have done bad wicked things. It is not possible for us to believe that Sri lanka will use the foreign aid in a correct manner to help the needy people with out stealing them? There should be law and order in your country.Innocent civillians and animals should not be allowed to be harrased by Governement officers .The corrupted officers should be removed. In 1999 as a pilot project the Birth control injections was done in Kotte Municipal council.Dr Kala Santha started that. The residents of Kotte protested against the decision to make a dog catching van and sent petitions and requested the Municipal to use that 1.2 million rupees for a birth control Programme.Dr Kala Santha met Public Health Veterinary Director P.A.L Harischandra and asked him to support that decision in 1999. Public Health Veterinary Director Harischandra wasted the money of Kotte residents and made a dog catching van We believe they have put a large estimate and they receive extra money as a bribe. The Kotte Municipality could have borrowed the dog catching vans in Narahenpita or Colombo if they wanted the van for such purpose. Public Health Veterinary Director Dr P.A.L Harischandra misled the WSPA saying that he is doing an action plan for humane Stray Dog control for the Effective Eradicatin of rabies in Sri Lanka .He didn`t stop killing dogs. TheSri lankan groups which are named KACPAW and Blue Paw Trust(recently formed) are helping the cruel ---------- ---------------------------- Harischandra .The Blue paw collected money from the public for their trust saying that they would help the street dogs in Colombo city.It is quite pathetic that they are collecting money misleading the public saying that they would help poor street dogs in Colombo..They are using the poor street dogs and cats for their survival. The street dogs are siezed and killed by the Municipal Council of Colombo regularly. ` The birth Control programme for Colombo Municipal should be carried out with Colombo Municipal vets and the Peradeniya University. The Final year students can do surgeries and release them. The Colombo Municipal Council should improve the facilities of the Municipal hospital for animals which would provide services for a reasonable price.They should provide a 24 hour service like the General Hospitalfor humans. Provincial Directors can implement Birth control injection in suburb areas during the antirabies vaccination programme. The State Pharmaceutical Co-operation can import Contraceptive injections ..This is very cost effective and Local authorities can afford purchase them. Dogs belonged to the Following residents were killed by the Kotte Municipal council and poison was provided by the Public Health Veterinary Director P.A.L Harischandra. 1Mr Saman Gurusinghe ,12 Liyanage Mawatha ,Nawala Road ,Rajagiriya 2.Ven Pathberiye Siriniwasa Himi,Siriniwasaramaya,1119?3,Sarana Mawatha ,Kotte Road ,Rajagiriya. 3.Mrs Ariyawthi,17/2,Old road ,Nawala 4 ,Mrs A.D Chandralatha,110,Nawala Road ,Rajagiriya 5, Mr kularatne ,349,Nanayakkara Mawatha ,Obesekarapura,Rajagiriya 6 .W Somadasa 617/18,Rajagiriya Udyanaya ,Rajagiriya In June 2002 a dog named `Chuti` who lived next door to Kotte Municipal council was taken away by the dog catching van .Few hours later the owners went in search of that dog but the officers of the Municipal refused to show the body.. In 2003 Large number of dogs were Killed using strichnine .Is this the humane method of stray dog control. Thiswas exposed in the news papers.They have abandoned the bodies near an army camp. On the september 27th 2002 at about 9.30 am some officers of the Health Department came in a dog catching van to the Dimiyawa Maha Vidyalaya of Ratnapura started killing dogs in the garden of the school.School children were pleading the officers to not to kill the dogs as they were immunised for rabies. By the time the principal arrived all the innocent dogs were killed.When Principal asked for an explanation they have scolded the principal . In 2003 large number of dogs were killed before Katharagma Procession.Is this apart of the Buddhist or Hindu culture? On the 12th of March 2003 Mrs.Wanigasekara who lives in 38E -3 ,Lake Drive ,Rajagiriya opened the door the dog catcher who was with a pole syringe and her pet dog was dying on the ground .The other pet dog was already killed by the dog catching van of the Kotte Municipal Council.The The foreigner who is in the neighbour hood has requested to do that .That killing was done in a private property. She lodged a complain against them at the Welikada police station. They were licenced and immunised for rabies.They had that yellow collar around their necks which says immunised for rabies.These dogs never atacked anybody . No action has taken against the Public Health Veterinary Director or the veterinary surgeon of Kotte Municipal CouncilMrs Mendis It is necessary to investigate that killing as Municipal vet surgeon Mrs .Mendis and Dr. Harischandra were suspected to have taken money from the foreigner. It is necessary to investigate the charges against Kotte Municipal veterinary surgeon Mrs Mendis and Public Health Veterinary Director P.A.L. Harischandra and the other offcers involved.
