BASL elections postponed
By T.Farook Thajudeen
The election of the Bar Association of Sri Lanka initially scheduled for today to elect a new President for the year 2017/2018 was postponed indefinitely due to a dispute with the Sri Lanka Judicial Services Association (SLJSA) over the controversial appointment of High Court Judge Ramanathan Kannan.
The dispute arose after a decision taken by the Judicial Service Association (SLJSA) to refrain from acting as the Presiding Officers.
