In SriLanka today evening one school boy has been arrested for hacking SriLankan President's Official Web Site... What a brave boy. He should have been used this knowledge for something better. But now, he has ruined his whole life in just 17 years of age..

I don't think so. Government never allowed people with bad records.

Nope. President doesnt want him to be punished as he is just a teenager. He is on bail... An american company has offered him a job with US citizen... Hehe

I don't think so. As I said in previous someone behind this. most probably political parties. But still we don't know more about this. Investigations still on. Today only he got arrested. He has hacked president's official web site and posted many fake things and edited videos n all during past 2-3 days. Today evening only CID has arrested him. I'll update you once I got to know something new about this.

@amandajay .....If he is the only one involved he would be the only one arrested. Again, it was a bad decision that he made.

It is a shame that some kids do not know that their actions of stepping on toes can harm their image.

@miniam
Actually Minors don't put into normal jail. They send them to Rehabilitation centers. But after completing 18 years in that place, he will surely put into the Jail. No doubt on that.

That was a pretty stupid thing to do. If he had that much knowledge about things like that then he could have done such great things with it. Some people are too smart for their own good.

That is very sad. What a waste of a young life. He could have put his intelligence towards so many other things that would have enhanced his life. It is something he will regret.

I think he should be recruited to work for an agency where his skills could be put to work as a form of rehabilitation.

Pretty sad, but what was his reason? Maybe that was brave too.
Anyway, what's the fee he has to pay now?
