The Anuradhapura Magistrate yesterday cleared a massive backlog of cases when she delivered judgments in 203 cases in a day.
Magistrate Ms. Dharshika Wimalasiri convicted suspects in 55 percent of these cases while releasing the rest. Sentences were imposed on some of those convicted while sentences on others were reserved and their finger prints were ordered to be recorded.
It was reported that almost all the case files relating to these 203 cases were destroyed when the Anuradhapura Magistrate Court and the record room caught fire on January 24, this year. The magistrate had taken speedy action to order police to prepare fresh records. Starting court sittings at 11.15 am yesterday, the Magistrate had delivered judgments in these cases 203 cases till 6.30 pm.

It is like one eye surgeon doing 200+ cataracts in one day to create a guiness world record. You cant expect 100% quality at this rate!!

The efficiency of the crime being committed is also very interesting. A record?

Good Work...................... but most of lawyers will be disappointed if all the judges follow the example. Be aware of them madam

Justice delayed = justice denied
Judgement rushed = justice refuted

Eranga Wijesinghe Tuesday, 02 August 2011 05:25 AM
Any way I like your style madam. You are straight forward...... we need judges like you. Good luck

That means 25 cases in one hour provided a day is 8 hours duty, So the judge took approx. two minutes a case. A guiness record or "A decision made in haste" - can it be flawless.

Female power in SA!!

Sad bit of news. Anuradhapura is the epicenter of Buddhism in Sri Lanka and 200 cases in one day. What is going wrong?
Fahim Hashim Tuesday, 02 August 2011 04:57 AM
Dont bring Buddhism into this. religion has nothing to do with this. This shows how public servants can work efficiently.

Hiran Shanaka Tuesday, 02 August 2011 04:53 AM
At this rate, she might as well give judgment to the cases that might happen in the future…something similar to Minority Report! Buy one, get one free!
ASFAR Tuesday, 02 August 2011 04:50 AM
