Lanka eNews network December 26, 2008, 4.50 PM Reliable sources said to 'Lanka-eNews nwtwork' that the cabinet yesterday (26) discussed a proposal to impeach the Chief Justice Sarath N. Silva while the focus of the cabinet was on the Supreme Court ruling to reduce the price of a liter of petrol to Rs. 100.
Our sources said that the proposal to impeach the Chief Justice was moved by a MP who crossed over to the government from the United National Party (UNP). The Minister stated that a similar proposal was brought as he was a Minister of the cabinet of the Ranil Wickramasinghe government. He said that Wickramasinghe had no backbone to proceed with it.

Although a leading figure of the ruling Sri Lanka Freedom Party (SLFP) had supported the proposal but the cabinet did not come to a decision.
The cabinet decided not to decrease the petroleum price since last midnight sans the Supreme Court ruling. A decision in this regard is to be taken at a special cabinet meeting to be held this evening.
