Southern Provincial Councillor M.K Kasun and his wife Tharaka Perera who were arrested for assaulting a private bus driver, were further remanded till March 27 by the Kaduwela Magistrate Court today.
The suspects were arrested by the Police for assaulting a driver of a 177 Kaduwela-Kollupitiya bus when he had allegedly blocked the way of the vehicle of the PC member at the Koswatta Junction in Battaramulla on March 9.
The Police arrested the couple on the spot with a 9mm pistol and five live bullets in their possession. (Farook Thajudeen)

These arrests would not have happened during the previous regime.

Absolutely true, in fact the bus driver would be missing by now.

These arrests happened because there was video evidence and were circulated already. However; they will come out in bail easily as we have a special/lenient law for politicos and their henchmen

Now justice is prevailing ,their supporters must shut their mouth and wait.Kaduwela magistrate always does his job well he must be made the President or Prime Minister of this country

It's not a 9mm pistol. It's a 38 or similar revolver. A sidearm probably issued to a cop.

Now MR and JO Co.will visit Kasun and wife in the remand cell and promise to provide the best lawyer for them.

Very glad to see justice being meted out.

Two questions that may hinge on my ignorance - 1) are they given the special treatment in remand prison and, are they put together. If this the case then might as well release them.

Enough for once the police had acted instead of being a silent onlooker awaiting orders from the top!!!

Well, these two thugs had a license on their pistol?Revoke their post after the verdict. (Hoping good one).The witness should be protected.

How these people become PC members..it's because we elect them. It's not entirely our fault , it's the party who let them represent them is also in fault. Will the party sack home?
