Sri Lanka Marxist party sues against breakaway rebel leader's appointment to parliament

SRI LANKA- Sri Lanka Marxist People's Liberation Front (JVP) General Secretary Tilvin Silva filed a fundamental rights petition yesterday against appointing ex-rebel leader Vinayagamurthi Muralitharan alias Karuna Amman to the parliament through national list.
