We write on instructions of our client Dr. Shirani A. Bandaranayake
We wish to draw your attention to the manner in which some
members of the select committee conducted themselves and request you to take
action which you consider appropriate.
The Chief Justice was insulted. The gestures made and
mannerisms made were totally unacceptable. Some of the the words used were
inter alia the following.
Pissu Gaani ( Mad woman)
''Api me nono methana thiyagena madawnawa( We ridicule this
lady keeping her here)
Babaa, No Babaa Hukung ( Baby, No cheating baby)
Usaviye nadagam natanawa ( Playing jokes in the courts)
Meyaata adamsala godak innwa ( This one has many adams - meaning not clear)
baba wage hitiyata baba wage weda nehem ( It is only baby
show, but act not like a baby)
We trust you will agree that such behaviour is inappropriate
in any circumstances. it must be even more so when the respondent is the Chief
Justice of the country and a lady at that
