Ranjan stands firm in SC
Deputy Minister Ranjan Ramanayake yesterday reiterated that he stands by
what he had said regarding the judiciary and lawyers of Sri Lanka
recently.
Addressing media outside the Supreme Court premises, Ramanayake said he
is not afraid to tell the truth that ordinary people and corrupt
politicians are treated differently by the judiciary.
“A poor who commits a minor offence such as stealing a street light bulb
had been jailed for several months, under the Public Property Act.
Corrupt politicians who stole millions of rupees in public funds can get
anticipatory bail to avoid being arrested, after retaining a
President’s Counsel,” Ramanayake said.Two petitioners had made
complaints to the Supreme Court seeking a contempt of court action
against Ramanayake for allegedly making disparaging remarks on the
reputation of the judiciary and lawyers, at a press conference held on
August 21.
