The petition was taken up before a bench comprising Justices Rohantha Abeysooriya and Priyantha Fernando.
During the proceedings, President’s Counsel Sanjeewa Jayawardena, appearing for Sallay, made detailed submissions to court, including references to the ideological influence of the ISIS terrorist organisation and its alleged operational presence within Sri Lanka.
After considering the submissions, the Court of Appeal directed that the case be recalled on July 10 for further arguments.
