Mervin's henchmen threats the judiciary...

The Judiciary Services Union expresses indignation over the incident of an unidentified group of persons intruding the house of Mount Lavinia Magistrate Darshika Wimalasiri's mother located in Peliyagoda and uttering in threatening tone, "The Minister said to tell Ms. Magistrate to grant bail to his son." The Magistrate is examining a complaint against Minister of Labor Dr. Mervin Silva's son Malaka Silva for assaulting and causing head injuries to an accountant.

The Judiciary Services Union Secretary Kandy District Judge Nissanka Bandula Karunarathna issuing a statement says that the unidentified group that came to the residence of the Magistrate's mother around 9.45 PM, compelled her to open the door and made the said threat.

The gang came to the house the following day and asked if the message was delivered to the daughter. When the mother said that she could not do so, the group left. A complaint has been lodged in the police in this regard, said the Secretary.

The Judiciary Services Union condemning the incident says that certain individuals have attempted to intervene a judiciary proceeding in a way the independence of the judiciary is damaged and emphasized the need of bringing them to books.

The association of the judges emphasizes that they will not permit to fulfill the objectives of the minority who have needed to overpower judiciary in a time the public are in dire need of protection of law. They vow not to tolerate any lawbreaker who challenges independence of the judiciary and the judges.

The union expressed hopes that Peliyagoda police station that has already commenced an investigation pertaining to the incident would continue it until the culprits will be brought to courts.

Colombaan tha...

It's time to wield some People Power in Sri Lanka to stop the unending rot that we are facing:-

1. Boycott Lake House newspapers
2. Dont pay taxes
3. Get on to the street, town by town, and march in protest (like Burma is doing now)
4. Protest openly at corruption and a violation of the law
5. Stop being a party to bribes and report every event to sme decent person who is in authority

We cant go on like this forever. Enough is enough!
