CA to deliver ruling on controversial transfer ordered by Foreign Ministry
The Island
|October 24, 2025
The Court of Appeal yesterday (23) fixed December 8 to deliver its ruling on the petition challenging the removal of B.R.P.M.A. Devendra from his post as Minister at Sri Lanka’s Consulate General Office in Melbourne, Australia.
The court is to decide whether to declare the removal order null and void.
The date was set when a fundamental rights petition filed on behalf of Devendra was taken up before Justice Dr. Frank Gunawardena. The petition seeks a court order against the decision made by the Director General of the Human Resources Division of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
