Voice For Democracy In Sri Lanka appeals to all MPs not to enact ATA

Source
By: Isuru Parakrama Colombo (LNW): “Voice For Democracy In Sri Lanka” urged all members of Parliament not to enact the government’s proposed “Anti-Terrorism Bill” in what they described as democracy and the rule of law being the priority. In a statement, the Voice For Democracy In Sri Lanka reminded that the country has suffered immensely under the current Prevention of Terrorism Act (PTA) for over four decades, and it is incumbent upon all MPs to right the wrongs of the past and get this bill right. “As politicians holding power, we appeal to you to do the right thing with moral conviction and integrity. This is one such moment we hope that public interest, political honesty, and respect for the rule of law will triumph over self-interest,” the statement read.
