Appeal Court denies Johnston Fernando’s writ

Date:

The Court of Appeal today (21) denied the writ petition filed by former Minister Johnston Fernando demanding an enjoining order barring his arrest.

Fernando was accused of escalating the unrest occurred on May 09 where a brutal assault was launched on peaceful demonstrations held in Galleface and in front of Temple Trees by pro-Rajapaksa protesters, and several complaints were lodged in the Police against the Ruling Party MP.

Knowing the probability of being arrested, Fernando lodged a writ before the Appeal Court demanding an enjoining order barring any arrest.
