The Supreme Court today (07) dismissed the appeal filed by G. G. Amarasiri, alias Julampitiya Amare, against the death sentence imposed on him for murder, without taking it up for hearing.

Accordingly, the Supreme Court confirmed the death penalty handed down by the Tangalle High Court.

The Tangalle High Court had earlier sentenced Julampitiya Amare to death over the 2012 incident in Katuwana, where he allegedly stormed into a Janatha Vimukthi Peramuna (JVP) meeting and opened fire, killing two individuals and critically injuring another.
