Court Extends Injunction Preventing Maithripala Sirisena from Acting as SLFP Chairman Until June 12

Date:

May 29, Colombo (LNW): The Colombo District Court has extended the interim injunction preventing former President Maithripala Sirisena from functioning as the Chairman of the Sri Lanka Freedom Party (SLFP) until June 12.

The extension was ordered by Colombo District Judge Sandun Withana today (May 9) during the consideration of a plaint filed by former President Chandrika Bandaranaike Kumaratunga.

Kumaratunga’s complaint asserts that, according to the constitution of the SLFP, Sirisena has no legal right to serve as the party’s chairman. Consequently, the plaint requested an enjoining order to prevent Sirisena from assuming this role.
