( December 6, 2012, Colombo, Sri Lanka Guardian) Chief Justice Shirani Bandaranayake has walked out of the Parliamentary Select Committee (PSC) hearing the Impeachment Motion, her lawyers said.
They said she would not return to it as she had no faith in it.
The lawyers had objected to the failure
to provide the list of witnesses and documents in addition to the
failure to spellout the procedure in conducting the sittings.
Also complains had been lodged about the conduct of some of the members.
The PSC began sittings at 2.30p.m. today and adjourned around 5.05
p.m. for a tea break and met again about 40 minutes later. Within few
minutes the Chief Justice and her team of lawyers walked out due to
disagreement with the Government member’s on the Committee.
One lawyer said that a Chief Justice had been spoken to in an insulting manner by some members.
The sittings have been fixed for Friday 1.30 p.m.
