The Colombo District Court today refused to issue an enjoining order preventing the UNP from conducting a disciplinary inquiry on Deputy Minister Abdul Carder, Ada Derana reporter said.
The Deputy Minister, who was elected to parliament after contesting under the UNP ticket, had filed an application requesting a court order to prevent the disciplinary inquiry to be held tomorrow (09) due to him voting in favor of the impeachment motion against the former Chief Justice.
UNP leader Ranil Wickramasinghe and General Secreatry Tissa Attanayake are named as respondents in the appeal. They have been issued summons to appear before the court on March 28.
The Colombo District Court ordered Abdul Carder that members of the United National Party (UNP) should abide by the party constitution even though they have received Deputy Minister portfolios.
