The Supreme Court a short while ago dismissed the fundamental rights (FR) petitions filed challenging the date set by the Election Commission (EC) for the general election.
The consideration of the petitions, which lasted over a period of 10 days, came to a conclusion today(2).
Seven parties including Attorney-at-Law Charitha Gunaratne, the Centre for Policy Alternatives (CPA), journalist Victor Ivan, and the Samagi Jana Balawegaya (SJB) filed FR petitions challenging the date for the general election set by the EC.
The further hearing of the FR petitions commenced for the 10th day last (1) morning.
The FR petitions were heard before a bench of five judges chaired by Chief Justice Jayantha Jayasuriya and comprising Justices Buwaneka Aluwihare, Sisira de Abrew, Priyantha Jayawardena, and Vijith Malalgoda.
The Attorney General (AG) on behalf of the President, EC Chairman Mahinda Deshapriya, and EC Members N.J. Abeysekara, and Prof. S. Ratnajeevan Hoole have been named respondents of the petitions.
