Former Deputy Minister of Highways Mervyn Silva has been reappointed to his post in the government, the President’s Media Unit said a short while ago. 

Silva was earlier cleared by an SLFP disciplinary committee from charges against him involving an incident where he had tied a Sumurdhi official to a tree in Kaleniya. 

Mervyn Silva was seen this morning taking part in a demonstration together with government ministers in Colombo in support of the 18th Amendment to the Constitution. (Daily Mirror online)
