August 03, Colombo (LNW): A crucial parliamentary session has been scheduled for August 05, with legislators preparing to debate a motion that could lead to the dismissal of Deshabandu Tennakoon from his position as Inspector General of Police (IGP).

Parliament will convene at 9:30 a.m., presided over by the Speaker, with a vote on the matter anticipated by late afternoon.
