The Colombo High Court today (02) ordered that the case filed against former Minister Duminda Dissanayake and a woman in connection with the recovery of a gold-plated firearm at the Havelock City housing complex be called on November 4.

 

The case was taken up before Colombo High Court Judge Udesh Ranatunga, said Ada Derana reporter.

 

Accordingly, former Minister Duminda Dissanayake and Aigul Sheragasina, a Kazakh national who has also been named as a defendant, appeared before the court.

 

The court ordered that the case be postponed until November 4 for pre-trial conferences, as the President’s Counsel appearing for the defence was indisposed.

 

The Attorney General has filed indictments against the defendants on charges of possessing an unlicensed gold-plated firearm and aiding and abetting the possession of the firearm at the Havelock City housing complex in Wellawatte on May 20, 2025.
