Polls chief’s appeal to Geneva next week
Elections Commisioner Dayananda Dissanayake’s attorney Elmore Perera said he would present the required documents next week to the Geneva-based Human Rights Committee asking for interim relief.

The findings of the H.R. Committee will help clear the polls chief’s name that he had not violated any fundamental rights. The Supreme Court had earlier refused to accept the application filed by the Elections Commissioner seeking revision on the judgment delivered earlier with regard to the date of the Presidential Election and also instructed the Supreme Court deputy Registrar Ms. Hema Ratnayaka not to entertain any papers regarding this matter as it has been finalised by the Supreme Court.
