Plot to remove HRCSL Chief?

Date:

A plot is under operation to remove Rohini Marasinghe from her post as the Chairwoman of the Human Rights Commission of Sri Lanka (HRCSL), sources said.

The HRCSL being independently and indiscriminately operated under Marasinghe, a retired Supreme Court Justice, is no secret given the Commission’s honest service over the years, which, according to sources, has become a headache to certain figures in the government.

In addition to her role as the HRCSL Chairwoman, Marasinghe also serves in the Tax Appeals Commission, considered of which these figures in the government are formulating the argument that a single person cannot serve in two commissions at once, in their plot to oust her from the HRCSL, sources further told LNW.
