July 15, Colombo (LNW): Sena Yaddehige, Chairman of Richard Pieris Group, is set to be arrested upon his return to Sri Lanka due to allegations of sexual assault involving a woman business analyst from the company.
The Kollupitiya Police secured a travel ban from the Fort Magistrate against Yaddehige following a complaint from a 39-year-old woman who claimed he assaulted her on May 7 at a high-end hotel in Kollupitiya.
The woman, who had been working remotely for the company, stated she was informed of Yaddehige’s return and requested to meet him, during which the alleged incident occurred.
Yaddehige reportedly left the country on the same day and has not returned since.
Kollupitiya Police have confirmed they are awaiting his arrival to enforce the travel ban and proceed with the arrest.
