Soon
after the race began, he borrowed a motorcycle from a youth and rode
for about four kms, giving quite a headache for his bodyguards and
organizers of the race.
Prior to the
race organized by Kiribathgoda Youths, the minister participated in a
public rally accompanied by Chandra Rajapaksa, a younger brother of the
president.
Speaking here, he said the
late Dr. W. Dahanayake faced his charges alone, but the incumbent chief
justice had accompanied a posse of lawyers to answer the allegations
against her.
The CJ will have to help
the lawyers, who are today appearing on behalf of her, and gratitude is a
good thing, but if she gave rulings in gratitude, people will lose
their confidence in the judiciary, said the minister.
He added that he hoped the CJ would think about that carefully.
