Justice Waruwa leaves the country

(Lanka-e-News -25.Nov.2011, 11.55P.M.) Justice W T M P B Waruwawa the dissenting judge in the three judge panel of the High court which delivered a controversial sentence of three year jail term on Gen. Sarath Fonseka in the white flag case had gone abroad . It is not known for how long he will be abroad. Justice Waruwawa proved his mettle as a judge of exceptional integrity and honesty by exonerating Gen. Fonseka of all charges when the other two judges decided to sentence Fonseka under a cloud of most sordid and depraved circumstances in the history of court judgments where the verdict is still being condemned among the legal circles as biased in order to serve political aims and agendas of powers that be.
Meanwhile Justice Waruwawa was receiving dire threats after the verdict was delivered.

It is worthy of note that on the night before the date of delivery of verdict , the computer in which the final case data was recorded had been tampered with by some individual and completely deleted . However , the judge had by that time taken a copy of the judgment file and transferred it into another CD cassette.
After the judgment was delivered , a computer expert had examined the computer , and restored the data which were deleted from it.

Following the delivery of judgment , the story that Defense Secretary had given a call to Justice Waruwawa has been shown to be partially true and , it is the defense Secretary’s advisor , the notoriously infamous Hendawitharne, the former chief of the intelligence unit , who had taken the call . But , Justice Waruwawa had not answered it.
