Colombo, 26 January, (Asiantribune.com): Retired General Sarath Fonseka did not cast his vote in today’s Presidential Election, where he was a candidate.

He had publicly acknowledged that he did not have a vote in the electoral register.

The law of the land is very clear that to contest in any elections, one should have a vote.

Now the question is being raised whether his candidature could be acceptable in the eyes of law.

It is now left to the Election Commission or the Supreme Court to decide on this issue.
