SECOND COURT MARTIAL AGAINST FORMER ARMY COMMANDER RECONVENES TODAY

The second court martial against former Army Commander parliamentarian Sarath Fonseka is to reconvene at 2 this afternoon.


“Charges against the former Army commander in relation to deviating from the accepted protocol when procuring weapons for the military will be examined when it reconvenes,” said Major General Ubhaya Madawela, military spokesperson. He noted that the witnesses of the respondent will be called up for the first time today.
Even though the court martial was to reconvene on Wednesday it was postponed as his doctors had communicated to the court that he was not feeling well.

The military said that four persons had been named as the respondent's witnesses. (News first)
