Punishment, My Friend

When justice comes from both law and life

By Rohitha LankaPublished 9 months ago • 1 min read

When they were in love,

Kusum realized that family life was not as beautiful as he thought.

After some time,

He secretly ran away with Kusumsiri and got married.

After some time, Kusumsiri,

Who was coming home from work in the evening,

Beat Heeniya for her pain in her hands and feet.

When the family had two children, they would come together and beat her until she was drunk and caught.

She would run around the village and beat her up.

Kusum, who had been beaten, was always stopped by the police.

The police book would be filled with your complaints.

If you ever want to get out of this, you will never be able to do it.

Ralahami said that every day.

Even then, while writing the complaint,

Kusumsiri probably didn't know that that day would be the last day of the fight. Even then,

Kusumsiri was hit by an axe on Kusumsiri's head,

And Kusumsiri was beaten twice and her hands were tied.

Kusumsiri admitted her guilt and received the punishment of justice.

The sentence was completed.

She spent her time working two or three times.

Even though her children grew up, she was not a burden to anyone.

She spent her time day after day doing a job.

Kusumsiri went to work and returned home.

It rained like hail. She came in a hurry and ran away without looking.

A speeding bus hit her and ran her over.

How much punishment did the law give her? Even if you get it

Nature also gives it

Punishment, my friend

Her flesh, which was scattered everywhere,

was collected with a shovel......😭
