The Colombo High Court today (17) ordered to handover a notice and an order, with respect to the court’s ruling to prevent Anura Priyadharshana Yapa and Susil Premajayantha from acting and discharging duties as the General Secretaries of the SLFP and UPFA respectively, to their houses.


The order was issued after the enjoining orders, in this regard, were not accepted, Ada Derana reporter said. 


The Colombo District Court earlier issued the enjoining order preventing Yapa and Premajayantha from acting and discharging duties as the General Secretaries until August 28, 2015.


President Maithripala Sirisena, in his capacity as the Chairman of the SLFP and UPFA, has also suspended the party memberships of Yapa and Premajayantha.


The President later appointed Minister Duminda Dissanayake as the Acting General Secretary of the SLFP and ex-Minister Prof. Vishwa Warnapala as Acting General Secretary of the UPFA.
