"Recently the previous regime allowed organized groups to stir up hatred against the Muslims. All these campaigns stirring up hatred against minorities is due to the lack of a law in our criminal law which curbs hate speech although ther is a provision in our Penal Code. Articles 18 and 19 guarantee the rights to freedom of religion and expression." https://www.colombotelegraph.com/index.php/a-law-against-hate-speech-is-urgently-required/
