Liquor shops and restaurants selling
liquor in the Kelaniya remain closed today since the April 17 order given by
MP-elect Mervyn Silva. Speaking to Ada Derana today Silva claimed that he took
the initiative since legal jurisdiction would never and now he would think
about the legal proceedings.
Silva added that he can’t be always
thinking about human rights especially those of liquor shop owners. I have to
think of the Human Rights of those who are affected by the behaviour of
drunkards, he said.
Former Labour Minister claimed that he
had once drunk wine but since then been a teetotaler.
The former Minister also claimed that he
had a family relation tie to Anagarika Dharmapala.
