The area around the cellblock in the Colombo Remand Prison where Yoshitha Rajapaksa and three others are detained on charges of money laundering has been declared a restricted area.

Only the two jailers on duty are authorised to enter J block of the prison where the suspects are detained. The suspects are kept under 24 hours surveillance by the jailers.

One jailer has been assigned to be present whenever Yoshitha Rajapaksa is taken out to meet visitors. All the suspects have been ordered not to leave the area without informing the jailers on duty, according to sources.

These restrictions have been placed on them after a mobile phone was found in a cell near Yoshitha's, prisons officers said.(Jayantha Samarakoon

Very good move. Isolate the robbers totally.

Still MR is trying with crooked policies arranging a phone to his son. Never allow.

Totally keep the culprits away from visitors as they are not ordinary culprits.

Horri Jimonis Monday, 15 February 2016 09:58 AM

Mind it, Yoshitha is not a easy man, he played out in Millions at this small age. Keep him alone and monitor his activities.

J Palitha Monday, 15 February 2016 09:59 AM

Better not to allow visitors to meet them. This family is a dangerous family who looted our country.

This is not fair, he should be kept with pickpockets and thieves and should be dumped in a tiny cell with 6 other inmates and forced to use the same toilet.

BuffaloaCitizen Monday, 15 February 2016 10:15 AM

These guys will continue to break the law whether inside or outside prison.

Kiris Baba Amaray Monday, 15 February 2016 10:34 AM
