Appointment by the president of a committee to inquire into the mass grave found<\/a><\/span> behind the Matale hospital while the magisterial inquiry if proceeding into the incident before the Matale Magistrate is of concern as the reason to appoint such a committee at this stage is not disclosed, says the\u00a0Standing Committee of the Bar Association of Sri Lanka on Rule of Law.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Issuing a statement today the\u00a0Standing Committee of the Bar Association of Sri Lanka on Rule of Law says; “The inquiry before the magistrate into this controversial incident was proceeding with full transparency to the satisfaction of all parties concerned.<\/p>\n

“While we appreciate the right of the president to appoint a committee of inquiry we are of the view that the inquiry by the committee should not obstruct or in any way influence the judicial inquiry.<\/p>\n

In this case it is of serious concern as the committee is appointed to carry out a parallel inquiry while the judicial inquiry is in progress.”<\/p>\n
