Capt. Tissa Wimalasena further remanded
Two suspects including Captain Tissa Wimalasena, the driver and security
officer of former President Mahinda Rajapaksa arrested for allegedly
operating an illegal quarry on a government owned land in the Koratota
area causing a loss of Rs.29 million to the government were today
ordered to be further remanded till August 24 by the Colombo Chief
Magistrate’s Court.
Two suspects Tissa Wimalasena and Lal Priyantha Peiris, a former member
of Puttalam Pradeshiya Sabha, were arrested by FCID under the provisions
of the Public Property Act and the Prevention of Money Laundering Act.
The suspects were charged with having operated a rock quarry, situated
at the Land Reclamation Commission, claiming that it belonged to the
Maga Neguma project.
Additional Magistrate Chanima Wijebandara had earlier refused to grant
bail on the suspects citing that there are no exceptional circumstances
to release them on bail.
The FCID is conducting further investigations into the incident.
