Making a special statement in Parliament on Friday Prime Minister Ranil Wickremesinghe announced that no doubt has been cast on the verdicts delivered by the Supreme Court over the past two years.

He further stated that it is clear that the President never received any motion  adopted by a majority of members of parliament, calling for the removal of Chief Justice Dr. Shirani Bandaranayake, due to any misdemeanor or inability. The Prime Minister added that when reading Article 107 part 2 of the constitution, it is evident that the President made an illegal and arbitrary decision to remove the Chief Justice.
