(Lanka-e-News- 05.May.2014, 3.30PM) Medamulana MaRa has decided in keeping with his eccentricity and dementia which are manifestly growing rather than diminishing has decided to appoint judges to the already degraded and disgraced supreme court who could only further contribute to its declining standards rather than rebuild its moth eaten image. (it is none other than the MaRa regime which is the architect of this debacle ).It is learnt there are three vacancies for judges of the bench of the supreme court (SC), and the Rajapakses, the notorious devil incarnates are getting ready to appoint a mediocre lawyer and non entity in the legal profession as one of the judges ,simply because he is an all in one lackey ,bootlicker and lickspittle of the Rajapakses. This lawyer , Priyantha Jayawardena’s only qualification leave alone his legal (dis)qualification is , he was in the committee of lawyers of Basil’s Divineguma draft resolution which eventually led to the impeachment motion against the former chief justice. This is the same mediocre low breed lawyer who during the period when the impeachment motion was being tabled took special pains to backbite and sneak upon the other lawyers of the legal fraternity to the Rajapakses round the clock, as he knew deep within his bones that he is the lowliest of lawyers from every angle who has no place in the sun if he is to conduct himself otherwise as an honorable lawyer upholding professional ethics and personal scruples.
He has also another qualification that enabled him to ingratiate himself into the favor of the equally uncouth and barbaric Rajapakses , that is , he is possessed of a tongue that is longer than that of a stray dog in the streets, not only to lick but to roll in and out of the mouth to utter ‘Sir’ every second when addressing Namal Rajapakse the only synthetic lawyer SL has produced. Taking into account all these (dis)qualifications, Medamulana MaRa who prefers such disqualifications decided after the impeachment motion then to appoint him as a President’s Counsel (PC).
Minus these sordid qualifications Priyantha is a zero in specialized professional qualifications. He had not appeared in any important cases . If at all he is entrusted with a case by a client , it is because he can play a ‘pimp’ and tout role exploiting the position of his sister who is a registrar of the SC , and arrange for his case to be heard by the panel of judges who are his favorites. His sister , Mahesha Jayawardena ( Mahesha Jayasekera after marriage ) too has an equally horrible antecedence . She was chased out from her post of Registrar on charges based on a number of fraudulent transactions . However after the impeachment motion she was reinstated .
Inordinately power greedy Rajapakses who are ever ready to sell themselves whole and even their souls , want unscrupulous stooges and lickspittles like Priyantha who only can serve their sordid aims best . Being themselves dishonest and inefficient , the Rajapakses cannot ever imagine of appointing honest competent individuals to high positions. They are only looking for sycophants who would carry tales to them . After judge Sathya Hettige who was discharging this sordid duty for the Rajapakses retired , the Rajapakses had a need to appoint someone who would be equally shameless or worse . They have found unscrupulous Priyantha the black coated shark who is born without any sense of shame as the right choice.
Already the Bar association of SL (BASL) had announced its objection to this prospective appointment simply because of the ridiculous criterion applied to make this lofty position look most ludicrous by appointing a court jester of MaRa’s Kangaroo court.
When former CJ Shiraneee Bandaranaike was also to be appointed as a SC judge this way , the BASL raised objections . However , Ms. Bandaranaike had by that time proved herself as an intellect having secured a professorial position in law .
On the contrary , Priyantha is just a mediocre lawyer and is only 53 years old , but of course he is indisputably an infamous fawner who would stoop to any cesspit level to bootlick the Rajapakses. He can officially continue in the SC for another about 12 years. It is the general consensus among legal luminaries that the Rajapakses are deliberately appointing these low breed least qualified incompetent lawyers to the SC to achieve their selfish calculated objective of making the SC too another hotbed of vice , violence and lawlessness in which climate the Rajapakses have clearly demonstrated they thrive best.
