Description

Sri Lanka police requested the court to issue an urgent order to remove the huts built by demonstrators claiming that they obstruct the access to the Presidential Secretariat and private companies in the area. The managers of two private companies in the area informed the court through their lawyers that they had not made any request to remove the protesters from Galle Face Green. The Chief Magistrate stated that it appears that there is no need for the police to pursue this request and ordered the prosecution to appear on June 13
