PROBLEM: The unexpectedly strong showing could lead to defections away from the centre-left party led by  President Maithripala Sirisena   a partner in the countryâs coalition government  analysts said  creating instability in the legislature.
Rajapaksaâs Sri Lanka Podujana Peramuna (SLPP)  a party formed by breakaway members of  Sirisenaâ  party  has secured 97 local bodies out of results for 139 councils so far released as at 0650 GMT. The UNP took control of 18 councils and SLFP six.
The president and his supporters have opposed or neutralised many of the UNP reforms. Under the constitution   Sirisena  cannot dissolve the parliament until early 2020  while the parliament needs a two-third majority to impeach the president.
 Sirisena  has said  he  wants to take charge of the economy  which is currently handled by the UNP  and has blamed the prime ministerâs party for failing to tackle corruption.

SOLUTION: Sri Lanka ex

Jay Sekulow  a member of the legal team counseling Trump on special counsel Robert S. Mueller III's wide-ranging Russia probe  said Tuesday that a second special counsel should be appointed to focus on FBI and Justice Department investigators.
 Sekulow 's call for a second special counsel was first reported Tuesday morning by Axios.
 Sekulow  did not allege wrongdoing on the part of Mueller or  his  team  telling The Washington Post that  his  call for a second special counsel has ânothing to do with Bob Mueller.â
But  Sekulow  argued that alleged conflicts of interest among FBI and Justice Department officials demand a full investigation by a special counsel.  He  singled out a Fox News report last week that Bruce G. Ohr  a senior Justice Department official  was demoted amid an investigation of  his  contacts with Fusion GPS  the opposition research firm that commissioned a salacious dossier documenting Trump's ties to Russia.
âThis is the kind of situation that  in my view  warrants a special counsel â  Sekulow  said.
Asked whether he was speaking on Trump's behalf or whether the president agrees with having a second special counsel   Sekulow  would not answer.  He  said  he  does not speak publicly about  his  conversations with the president.
 Sekulow  works alongside John M. Dowd  another private attorney for the president  and in close collaboration with Ty Cobb  a White House lawyer who handles the Russia portfolio.

PROBLEM: Documents released by the New Zealand Security Intelligence Service (SIS) show the then  17-year-old Christopher Lewis  shot at the Queen as  she  got out of  her  vehicle on the way to a science fair on Oct. 14 during  her  eight-day tour of the Commonwealth nation.
 âLewis  did indeed originally intend to assassinate the Queen  however did not have a suitable vantage point from which to fire  nor a sufficiently high-powered rifle for the range from the target â said a 1997 SIS memo  that was declassified in February and sent to Reuters on Thursday.
 Lewis   who intelligence documents described as a âseverely disturbedâ youth  was not charged with attempted murder or treason  adding to claims the incident was downplayed to prevent embarrassment to a country hosting a royal visit.
According to intelligence documents  police kept a close eye on  Lewis  during a 1986 visit by the Queen to New Zealand  fearing that  he  was still a risk.
More than a decade after the incident   Lewis  was charged with the brutal murder of an Auckland mother and the abduction of  her  baby daughter  who was later dropped at a nearby church.
According to multiple news reports at the time   Lewis  electrocuted  himself  while in prison in 1997 awaiting the murder trial.  He  denied the murder charge in a suicide note.
