Attorney-at-law Gunaratne Wanninayake has filed a writ petition before the Court of Appeal, seeking an order to prevent his arrest in connection with an incident involving a police constable at the Mount Lavinia Court premises.
The petition, submitted on October 14, requests the Court to issue an order ensuring that Wanninayake will not be arrested prior to being produced before a court of law.
According to court sources, the application is scheduled to be taken up today before the Court of Appeal. The case has drawn significant public attention due to its association with alleged misconduct at a court complex.
Further details on the proceedings are expected to be released following the hearing.
