Tamils have no faith in SL justice says Wigneswaran

The Tamil people are in doubt over the Sri Lankan justice system said the Chief Minister of the Northern Province C.V. Wigneswaran, because pro-government cases are resolved, whereas those against government policies are delayed, reports Uthayan.

Drawing attention to the on-going cases of over 2000 filed regarding land grabs in Valikaamam North, Justice Wigneswaran said Tamils had lost faith in the system.

Stating that he would not comment on judges or the courts, he added that the president's power to appoint judges had caused undue political influence into the judiciary in the country.
