WhatNews, Newsfirst, Newswire, Hiru News and Ada Derana report that five Buddhist monks, including Ven. Balangoda Kassapa, were summoned to appear before Anuradhapura Chief Magistrate’s Court on November 20. Newsfirst identifies the magistrate as Siyapath Pasindu Wickramaratne and reports that he issued the order that day.

WhatNews and Hiru News place the monks’ sit-in near Ruwanwelisaya, within Anuradhapura’s sacred area. Hiru News says the protest concerns a new plan for the sacred city. Newsfirst reports that the court action followed a direction for Kassapa and others to leave the location.

Ada Derana reports in one headline that the sit-in had reached its fourth day, while a separate Ada Derana headline says it was continuing for a third day despite a court order. WhatNews also reports that a request to lift a restriction order was rejected, but its teaser ends before giving further details.
