While urging the Government to stop harassing former Chief Justice Shirani Bandaranayake, the Lawyers for Democracy said today they would continue to do explore all possible avenues in seeking justice for Dr. Bandaranayake.

“Dr. Bandaranayake is still being harassed though it has been one year since her unconstitutional impeachment. She is either summoned to the Bribery Commission or to Courts frequently. This should be stopped,” Attorney J.C. Weliamuna said.

He said Sri Lanka’s legal fraternity together with civil society groups and international organisations would launch several campaigns to obtain justice for Dr. Bandaranayake.
