Court denies request to impose travel ban on Basil and Attygalle

The Court today (18) denied a request to impose a travel ban on former Finance Minister Basil Rajapaksa and former Finance Secretary S.R. Attygalle.

Keerthi Thennakoon, a provincial governor of the previous government, had made this request to the Court and Maithri Gunaratne, another former provincial governor of the previous government, appeared in Court on his behalf.

A vacation court is functioning today and only one of the five Colombo Magistrate Courts operates. Colombo Additional Magistrate Harshana Kekunawala, who served as its Judge, denied the above request.
