Colombo District Court decided to consider a petition challenging the enjoining order against Susil Premajayantha and Anura Priyadarshana Yapa on August 28.
Attorney-at-Law Aruna Laksiri filed a petition against the enjoining order, saying that it had been obtained by misusing judicial powers. He asked the court to permit him to act as an intervening party in the hearing of the enjoining order.
The enjoining order stayed the functioning of Premajayantha and Yapa as General Secretaries of UPFA and SLFP respectively. It was obtained by Acting General Secretaries of UPFA and SLFP, Prof Wishwa Warnapala and Duminda Dissanayake.
The next hearing of the enjoining order will also take place on August 28.
