(Lanka-e-News- 04.Nov.2014, 11.50PM) The incumbent President of Sri Lanka (SL) Medamulana Percy Mahendra Rajapakse had himself today written a letter to the supreme court (SC) to get a ruling on whether he can contest the Presidential elections a third time . This issue to be examined by a panel of judges of the SC including the chief justice (CJ) on Friday. The other judges who would be on the panel are still not known.
The funniest and craziest part of this judicial issue of crucial importance is : the two questions given herein below to secure an opinion in this connection had been prepared by the chief justice (cheat justice) Mohan Peiris himself from within the Temple trees itself. Basil Rajapakse had told Peiris that this matter be taken up on Friday , and a verdict be delivered on Monday.
The mockery of justice in this instance to be perpetrated is very clear because , it is Mohan Peiris who is questioning and it is he who is going to write down the judgment . The two questions prepared by Mohan Peiris alias Pachoris on behalf of Percy Mahendra are as follows :
1. Whether the incumbent president is entitled" at any time after the expiration of four ^4& years from the commencement of his current term of office" by Proclamation" declare his intention of appealing to the People for a mandate to hold office by election for a further term" as amended by `8th Amendment?
2. Whether the incumbent President is qualified to be elected to the office of President for another term in terms of Article 31^2& read with Article 92^c& as amended by the 18th Amendment or vice versa?
It is a pity in this Island of Sri Lanka where Lord Buddha preached noble precepts , the courts which uphold justice is being degraded and disgraced to this ignoble level so shamelessly and sordidly .
Previously , a former chief justice Sarath Nanda Silva argued that as Mahinda Rajapakse is already declared unqualified , he cannot even seek the opinion of the SC .
At least let us hope the SL judiciary will attain nibbana that is being murdered so cruelly in cold blood by the very sentinels of justice and the powers that be who should on the contrary be safeguarding its sanctity and hallowed traditions.
