Two prisoners serving death sentences yesterday sought presidential pardon in the same way that the accused who received a pardon from the death sentence in the Royal Park murder case. These two prisoners climbed the roof of the ‘ H’ Ward of the prison to make their demand. They said they would not descend from the roof until such time that an officer from the Ministry of Justice would come and accede to their request. Pix by Chathura S.Kodikara
