Appeal Court orders not to arrest pastor Jerome Fernando

Date:

Colombo (LNW): The Appeal Court yesterday (17) ordered the Police not to arrest pastor Jerome Fernando during any of his arrivals at the airport or any other place in the country.

The order was made after considering a writ petition filed by the self-proclaimed prophet by the two-member Appeal Court bench comprising Justices Nissanka Bandula Karunaratne (Chairman) and Chamath Morais.

Fernando, however, must produce a statement to the Digital Forensic Division of the Criminal Investigation Department (CID) within 48 hours after arriving in Sri Lanka, the Court ordered.
