A county with multiple laws. Death by a road accident is a murder charge from what I know. He should be in remand. Driving on the wrong side, knocking a cyclist down and driving off.

Did cricket board interfere to get him bail. How much a mans life is worth in Sri Lanka. His lawyer offered RS 1 million to mans family to accept an out of court settlement. This is why Sri Lanka is not Singapore. Money talk and criminals go unpunished.
