Lawyer Manoj Gamage asked to appear at Colombo Fort Police Station
President of the National Alliance for Lawyers Associations (NALA), Manoj Gamage, has been asked to appear at the Colombo Fort Police station for an inquiry into a complaint made regarding certain statements made by him.
The Attorney at Law is to appear at 9am on August 20, the Association said in a statement.
The Director of the Criminal Investigation Department (CID) Senior Superintendent of Police (SSP) Shani Abeysekera lodged a complaint with the police against Mr. Gamage recently.
The complaint was lodged over an incident where Mr. Gamage had allegedly threatened the SSP at a media conference.
Meanwhile, the Association issuing a statement claimed that it was unacceptable to conduct such an inquiry regarding a statement made at a press conference.
Further, the statement claimed that this would also undermine the fundamental right to free speech and expression as enshrined in the Constitution.
