Unofficial Magistrate - BASL condemns Kaduwela Mayor s claim

As evidenced by audio recordings circulating on social media and reported by the media, the Mayor is heard claiming to be an 'Unofficial Magistrate', implying that he was exercising judicial authority, the BASL said in a statement. "Such a claim is wholly erroneous and misconceived, as the Mayor was not, at the time, acting under the authority of any Magistrate or judicial capacity," it said.
