The most interesting thing about the deranged ISIS supporting ratbag who stabbed six innocents before being killed by the Police, was his nationality. Specifically, he was Sri Lankan born.
There are about 20,000 Sri Lankan migrants living in New Zealand. Is it possible he was the first Sri Lankan to commit a crime in New Zealand? I certainly don’t recall any others as arguably more than any other ethnicity, they’re model citizens.
Since the late 1970s up until his retirement, my GP and tennis opponent was a Sri Lankan. I’ve known many, indeed one of our staff who we’ve employed for the last 15 or so years is Sri Lankan. I’ve never met one I didn’t like and we’re lucky to have them here.
