The government clarified today that the Attorney General’s position and the AG’s Department will not be abolished with the establishment of the proposed Independent Prosecutor’s Office.

Cabinet Spokesman Nalinda Jayatissa, addressing the weekly Cabinet briefing, stated that the new office would operate with greater capacity than the AG’s Department.

In response to a journalist’s question, he emphasised that the Independent Prosecutor’s Office aims to deliver justice more efficiently and free from allegations that have recently plagued the AG’s Department.
