Gnanasara Thero Prison Robe Removal Case
The Court of Appeal President appointed a three-judge bench to consider petitions regarding the removal of robes from Ven. Galagoda Aththe Gnanasara Thero, a Buddhist monk serving a prison sentence. The case involves questions about prison authorities' authority over religious vestments.
