Ministers request for a sturdy judiciary process for corruption and frauds

Dec 14, 2016

The society today has not at all  satisfied  in regard to the judiciary process that is being carried out against those involved in corruption, fraudulent and criminal activities during the previous regime.The feelings of the people in this regard are not encouraging at all.

It is the view of the majority that this government although came in to power  promising that those who were responsible and guilty of frauds of huge magnitude  would be brought to book and punished.Now there is a vast view  that those guilty of these corrupt activities are  been shielded without proper investigations conducted.

In the contest of the above even the ministers in the government believe strongly that the judiciary process in this regard is not strong enough.In this regard the need of the hour in a strong judiciary mechanism and a new system need to be commenced urgently.These ministers had informed of this proposed process to the cabinet.for implementation.

It is learnt that in this regard  some ministers representing the cabinet board  have prepared a cabinet paper and presented to the cabinet.It is reported that this cabinet paper has been signed by ministers Rajitha Senaratne,Champika Ranawaka,Sarath Amunugama,Arjuna Ranatunga,Thalatha Atukorale,Mahinda Amaraweera and a few others. What is said by them is that the mechanism is not adequate at all.They have also pointed out that not only those in the previous regime but some in the present government are also among the accused for corruption and frauds which is a significant feature.
