Date:

July 22, Colombo (LNW): The Acting Magistrate of Nuwara Eliya has directed local police to apprehend and bring Ceylon Workers’ Congress (CWC) General Secretary, Minister Jeevan Thondaman, to court.

Thondaman faces allegations of unlawfully intervening, exhibiting unruly conduct, and threatening law enforcement and estate management at a tea estate in Nuwara Eliya on May 31.

The Nuwara Eliya Police had previously issued summonses for Thondaman and other individuals connected to the case to attend court on the 22nd.

As the suspects failed to appear, legal representatives for the estate company presented the case to the court.

In response, the Magistrate has instructed the police to arrest Thondaman and the other implicated parties and present them in court.
