The Bar Association of Sri Lanka (BASL) is contemplating a probe on the professional conduct of Attorney-at-Law and police media spokesman, SSP Ajith Rohana.

BASL president Upul Jayasuriya said that the police media spokesman, while describing himself as a lawyer, keeps making false statements on important issues.

“While identifying himself as an attorney-at-law, the police media spokesman keeps telling palpable lies,” Mr. Jayasuriya said.

“He can’t identify himself as a lawyer and lie,” he said; stressing the responsibility of the legal profession.

He said the BASL was considering a probe on the professional conduct of SSP Rohana. (Susitha R. Fernando)

Although they say, truth, nothing but the truth, in their profession lies are a part, without which they cannot survive.

Who is Jayasuriya, he is a UNP blood sucker? What else can we expect from such an idiot.

Best action would be to prove all his lies to the public.
