Colombo, July 24 (Daily Mirror) - Pronouncing its order pertaining to the Fundamental Rights petitions challenging the appointment of Deshabandu Tennakoon as the Inspector General of Police (IGP), the Supreme Court held that the President may or should consider appointing a suitable person as the IGP in accordance with the law during the period of operation of the interim order.
The Supreme Court three-judge-bench comprising Justices Yasantha Kodagoda, Achala Wengappuli and Mahinda Samayawardena unanimously held that there is a strong prima facie case to issue an interim order restricting Deshabandu Tennakoon from exercising the powers, functions and responsibilities of the office of IGP.
The petitions were fixed for argument on November 11.
