The applications filed by Ratnapura District MP Premalal Jayasekera and two others against their death sentences, will be taken up for debate at the Court of Appeal on the 25th of November.
The trio filed the applications with the Court of Appeal seeking that the order be canceled and they be acquitted and released from all indictments.
In July 2020, the Ratnapura High Court sentenced to death Premalal Jayasekara on charges of murdering another individual in Kahawatte in 2015.
