Sajin’s bail application rejected

August 10, 2015   11:57 am

A bail application, which was filed by a Counsel on behalf of former UPFA MP Sajin de Vass Gunawardena, was dismissed by the Colombo High Court.


The bail application was rejected when the case was heard before High Court Judge Padmini Ranawaka Gunathilaka on Monday (10).


UPFA Parliamentarian Sajin de Vass Gunawardena, who was arrested for allegedly misusing vehicles belonging to the President Secretariat Office, has been remanded until August 11 by the Fort Magistrate’s Court.


The Criminal Investigation Department (CID) summoned Gunawardena to record a statement, in this regard, on May 11, where he was subsequently arrested.


Gunawardena was also on bail in a separate case filed by the Commission to Investigate Allegations of Bribery or Corruption for non-declaration of his assets.
