Court further restrains Justice Minister from functioning as SLFP Chairman

The Colombo District Court yesterday (25) extended an interim order preventing Justice Minister Wijeyadasa Rajapakshe from functioning as Chairman of the Sri Lanka Freedom Party (SLFP).

The order was issued when a plaint filed by the Treasurer of the SLFP, State Minister Lasantha Alagiyawanna, was taken up.

The Colombo District Court granted time for the respondents to file objections in this regard.

Subsequently, the case was ordered to be recalled on July 09, and the injunction will remain in effect until that date. The faction led by former President Chandrika Bandaranaike Kumaratunga recently unanimously appointed Minister Nimal Siripala de Silva as the Chairman.
