Supreme Court judge Yasantha Kodagoda today (10) cited a personal reason and recused himself from hearing a fundamental rights petition filed by former CID director Shani Abeysekara.
The ex-director is seeking an order preventing his arrest by the CID over a case being heard at the Kuliyapitiya magistrate's court relating to Easter Sunday attacks.
The other two judges in the SC case are S. Thurairaja and Mahinda Samayawardena.
The court fixed the petition for support on 07 April.
