Former First Lady Shiranthi Rajapaksa has been further remanded until October 16 by the Colombo Chief Magistrate’s Court, after a medical report from the National Hospital confirmed that she had no ongoing or planned surgeries.
The court ordered the further remand of Shiranthi Rajapaksa, who is currently in remand custody in connection with ongoing investigations into alleged financial misappropriation of the ‘Siriliya Saviya’ account, until October 16.
The Chief Magistrate ordered that her detailed medical reports be submitted to the court on that date, noting that no decision on bail would be made until then, said Ada Derana reporter.
Colombo Chief Magistrate Asanga S. Bodaragama issued the order after considering submissions made by lawyers representing the suspect and the Commission to Investigate Allegations of Bribery or Corruption (CIABOC).
