The Examinations Department will take a few days to issue the results of the Russian language Advanced Level 2011 examination paper, Examinations Department sources said.

The Russian language results of 28 students of Alawwa National College and 10 students of Gurukula Vidyalaya, Kelaniya have to be issued. The results have been withheld since the Examinations Department is inquiring into similarities of answer scripts.

However, these students have faced many difficulties due to the failure to issue the results. According to the students, the Examinations Department has failed to give a proper answer for the delay. Among these students there is a female student who has obtained two A passes for two subjects while the results for the remaining subject 'Russian language' is withheld.

Examinations Department sources said the Russian language result will be released after the Experts' Committee report. President Mahinda Rajapaksa appointed a four-member Experts' Committee to look into the issues related to the result issuing process.

Meanwhile, the results of around 115 candidates have been withheld owing to several issues, including examination malpractices. The Examinations Department is inquiring into these matters candidates also, Department sources said.
