Overseas travel ban on State Minister Diana Gamage temporarily lifted

Date:

The overseas travel ban imposed on Tourism State Minister Diana Gamage has been temporarily lifted by the Colombo Chief Magistrate Court today (15).

Accordingly, the overseas travel ban imposed on the State Minister was lifted for a period of five days, as the petition against Gamage was taken up for hearing today.

The decision comes in following a request made by Gamage’s lawyer to grant relief as his client is expecting to travel abroad from December 21 to 23 and for three days from December 28.

The overseas travel ban was imposed on Gamage on November 11, and was extended till November 17 and thereafter December 15, based on a petition filed against the State Minister challenging the legitimacy of her passport, birth certificate, and National Identity Card.
