AC discards Select Committee report as null and void: Govt. MPs react like terrorists trampling the court order
(Lanka-e-News -07Jan2013, 11.30PM) Following the verdict of the Supreme court (SC) based on the interpretation of the constitution that the Select Committee has no judicial power, the Appeal court today announced that the decision of the Select Committee is without validity in law. The appeal court made this announcement when delivering its verdict on the petition filed by the Chief Justice.
This petition was heard before the panel of judges comprising justices , Sri Skandaraja (President) , A W A Salaam and Anil Gunaratne.
Meanwhile at a meeting of the party leaders, disregarding the SC verdict most barbarically it was decided that the Parliamentary debate shall be held on the Select Committee report on the 10th and 11th.
When the party leaders meeting was held today at 11.00 a.m. at the Parliament premises , the opposition stated , they accept the position that only the SC has the power to make a determination on the constitution , and therefore a parliamentary debate on the Select Committee report is unlawful. Despite so many elucidations and sound explanations being presented by the opposition , the Govt. party leaders reacted to them mentally, physically and stubbornly like donkeys which compelled the opposition party leaders to stage a walk out in protest . Among those who so walked out were the UNP , JVP and TNA leaders. Ravi Karunanayake, Lakshman Kiriella , Anura Dissanayake and Suresh Premachandran .
After the opposition leaders staged a walk out , the Govt. party members decided to have the debate on the 10th and 11th , while the voting was fixed for the 11th at 6.30 p.m.
Political analysts said , this conduct of the Govt. representatives clearly betrayed their baser qualities and that they are worse than terrorists while the Govt. itself they represent is a terrorist Organization for not abiding by the laws. Like the terrorists who do not abide by the constitution and the judicial Courts, and who follow their own ‘Kekille’(mockery) courts using their armed power, the Rajapakse regime too has demonstrated, from today onwards officially they have taken the place of the terrorists . The Rajapakse Govt. had trampled the constitution and is kicking away the court decisions . This brutality and barbarity were also well illustrated by the murders committed by the Rajapakse Govt. even on its own party politicos when they took an antagonistic attitude to the Govt. views, they added.
