Prasanna Vithanage's 'Usawiya Nihandai' refrained from screening till Oct.19

By Shehan Chamika Silva

Colombo District Court today issuing an injunction order refrained the film ' Usawiya Nihandai' (Silence in the Courts) being screened till October 19.

The order was issued by District Court Judge M.U. Gunawardena after taking into consideration the petition filed by former magistrate Lenin Ratnayake that the film directed by Prasanna Vithanage was based on a false story relating to him and it had defamed the judiciary.

The Court also notices the respondents stated in the petition to appear in court to inform court their stance over the petition.
