LBN Court Case today 21st July 2006

Customers of LBN Cable TV will be closely watching what happen's today since the LBN hopes that something fruitful will emerge at today's court hearing.

Reports suggest that the TRC and the Media Ministry have been asked to submit documents today regarding LBN. Although initial reports said that the LBN reps have told that transmissions may begin this evening, reports received later suggest the end of this month.

Let's just hope that the authorities concerned will take the plight of over 10,000 LBN Cable Subscribers and issue a favourable verdict.

This has got dragged along for too long and it is now time to stop this madness of trying to suppress the media in sri lanka.

We request the LBN Customers and manangement to keep updating us on the results of today's court hearing.
