(Lanka-e-News -09.May.2015, 10.00PM) The deposed deflated ex president Mahinda Rajapakse had instructed Dinesh Gunawardena M.P. to probe whether there is a possibility to raise a question of breach of parliamentary privilege before the speaker of parliament against the Colombo chief magistrate Gihan Pilapitiya , according to reports.
The UPFA MPs Dallas Alahaperuma , Bandula Gunawardena , Gamini Lokuge , Janaka Priyantha Bandara , Sarath Weerasekera ,Roshan Ranasinghe,Jayantha Ketagoda, Uditha Lokubandara ,Weerakumara Dissanayake and S.M. Chandrasena who were found guilty of contempt of court for not abiding by the directives of the court had expressed their grievances to Mahinda Rajapkse who by now is widely known as mentally moth eaten due to senile decay despite all the cosmetic display he puts on before the public to hide it . Mahinda despite his own embattled state with mounting accusations against him of embezzlements and corruption had tried to maintain his fast crumbling ‘hero’ image before his UPFA zeros , by giving the instructions noted in the foregoing paragraph to Dinesh Gunawardena.
These UPFA politicos have complained to Mahinda that the respect (if they have any ?) they deserve as parliamentary members and provincial council members were trampled by the Colombo chief magistrate in open court when they appeared in court , and therefore suitable action be taken since their parliamentary privileges have been breached thereby.
Dallas Alahaperuma had pointed out , when their group appeared before court , the attitude of the chief magistrate and detaining them in the prison cage of the court for two hours constitute a breach of privilege of the MPs , and therefore the chief magistrate Gihan Pilapitiya should be summoned to parliament and questioned.
Udaya Gammanpila had complained to deposed president that Gihan Pilapitiya has now become a stooge of the government (for taking action duly against the law breakers?). Hence a parliamentary action should be initiated to somehow displace him from his post . Measures must be taken to stage protests Island wide against Gihan Pilapitiya to achieve this goal , Gammanpila had further stated.
Mahinda Rajapakse of course having nothing better to do during these days , and with an idle mind that has turned into a devil’s workshop had agreed to focus on the future parliamentary action simultaneously with a poster campaign against courts
