Three restraining orders against protests at Health Ministry

Colombo Chief Magistrate Lal Ranasinghe Bandara has issued three restraining orders preventing protests by the Sri Lanka Nurses’association, Inter University Bhikku Federation (IUBF) and the Student Union University of Aesthetics Studies.

The Colombo Magistrate Court issued the orders following a request made by Deputy Solicitor General D.S.G. Janaka Bandara.

Sri Lanka Nurses’association was to launch a protest in front of the Ministry of Health and Indigenous Medicine, showing its displeasure of student unions forcibly entering and damaging government properties during a anti- SAITM protest held recently.

Meanwhile, the IUBF and the Student Union University of Aesthetics Studies was scheduled to stage a protest demanding the release of students arrested during the incident.
