SJB MPs Harin Fernando and Manusha Nanayakkara off to Geneva in search of freedom for Ranjan Ramanayake (VIDEO)

Date:

Samagi Jana Balawegaya (SJB) MPs Manusha Nanayakkara and Harin Fernando today (01) left for the United Nations Human Rights Council (UNHRC), Geneva, Switzerland in search of freedom for former MP Ranjan Ramanayake, who is currently is spending a sentence of rigorous imprisonment over contempt of court.

Speaking to reporters at the Katunayake Bandaranaike International Airport premises, the MPs stated that in the event that there is a debate in the society as to whether Ramanayake’s sentence was more of a political punishment rather than a court sentence as he had not been granted the Presidential Pardon despite repeated requests, the only option in search of freedom for the former MP would be the help of the international community.

Their departure for Geneva would not be a state of betrayal but a journey in search of justice for Ramanayake, the SJB MPs added.
