The Appeals Court extended the interim injunction order against the ban on 'full face helmets' till May 5.
The court gave this direction after the Attorney General's Department informed that the new regulations are yet to be drafted.
The police earlier decided to ban full face helmets with effect from March 21, 2015, in order to stop crimes and burglaries done by people covering their faces using full face helmets. However, following strong opposition from motorcyclists, the ban was withdrawn.
The Attorney General recently informed court that new regulations will be introduced for the use of full face helmets.
