April 29, 2016 06:13 pm

An interim order has been issued by Court preventing members of the “Joint Opposition” and SLTB trade unions from entering Shalika Grounds in Narahenpita for 14 days from today, police spokesman ASP Ruwan Gunasekara said.

The May Day rally of the self-styled Joint Opposition was scheduled to commence from Shalika Grounds and at Kirulopane Grounds on Sunday (May 01).

However, the reservations made by the leaders of the group had been cancelled abruptly prompting the Joint Opposition to accuse the government of attempting to “sabotage” their rally.
