Civil courts for Kilinochchi & Mullaitivu

(August 24,Colombo, Sri anka Guardian) The Ministry of Justice has taken a decision to set up courts in Kilinochchi and Mullaitivu districts, before resettlements take place in those areas.

A high court and a magistrate court will be established in Kilinochchi while Mullaitivu will have a magistrate court, official sources said.

Vanni people went to LTTE “courts” when they were under its control and now will have to come to these courts for their needs.

At present cases relating to these areas are being heard in the Vavuniya courts.
