The Minuwangoda Magistrate today (16) further remanded Kondeya’s elder brother Saman Jayalath till December 07 who was arrested in connection with the murder and sexual assault on the child in Kotadeniyawa, Ada Derana reporter says.

The Minuwangoda Magistrate was earlier apprised that DNA samples found on Seya Sadewmi match Saman Jayalath.

This was informed after the Criminal Investigations Department (CID) submitted a report prepared by the Genetech Molecular Diagnostics Research Institute (GMDRI) on the DNA tests.

The elder brother of Kondaya was submitted to the GMDRI in Colombo for the DNA test on October 06. Earlier, the CID also informed the Magistrate that Kondaya’s brother has confessed to the crime.

Seya Sadewmi was found strangled to death on September 13 while she was reported missing from her home at Kotadeniyawa in Divulapitiya on the previous day.
