The Court of Appeal has issued a warrant to arrest the Minister of State Sanath Nishantha and bring him to court.
This is due to the fact that a notice was issued to appear before the Court of Appeal today (13) in relation to the complaint filed against him regarding contempt of court, but he did not appear before the court when the case was called this morning.
Accordingly, this warrant was issued to the IGP by the Court of Appeal Judges Nishanka Bandula Karunaratne and R Gurusinghe.
However, it was reported that after some delay, Sanath Nishantha had arrived at court.
