    Well timed! His moronic colleague (Gomma) will not have a chance to raise the matter in Parliament and sit on the well of the House!!

    Bubble Banda Tuesday, 10 January 2017 01:22 PM

    May be by now he is released. Who knows?

    Kiris Baba Amaray Tuesday, 10 January 2017 01:25 PM

    Hora...Hora.... Jail is the right place to you Wimal.

    Desmond Jeromme Tuesday, 10 January 2017 01:28 PM

    He had played out on hiring his relations vehicles to State Engineering Corporation and made approx. 12.8 billion.

    TJ Tuesday, 10 January 2017 01:31 PM

    Arresting on lighter charges and releasing on bail is the deceptive game this government is playing to hoodwink the people.

    German Jacob Tuesday, 10 January 2017 01:47 PM

    Indeed, the entire nation is celebrating when they got to know Weerawansa is arrested.

    Kiris Baba Amaray Tuesday, 10 January 2017 01:49 PM

    Lankan Tuesday, 10 January 2017 12:49 PM

    Tell us about at least one person who is properly charged, remanded and prosecuted? Nobody is taking these seriously anymore, or maybe this is what the government wants?

    Madiya Tuesday, 10 January 2017 12:17 PM

    Eesan Tuesday, 10 January 2017 12:33 PM

    Don't release tomorrow , atleast day after tomorrow please

    BuffaloaCitizen Tuesday, 10 January 2017 12:34 PM

    Easy come and easy go. This is drama. Next to no time he will obtain bail and be out. If simple Simon like me committed an offence towards public property, I will be left to rot inside the Welikada jail for years without ability to get bail. This country has different sets of rules categorized for the following sectors...Opp. Politicians; Governing Politicians; Political hench-aiyas; Buddhist Clergy Thug class; Buddhist clergy normal so on and so forth.

    Kadupol Jothywansa Tuesday, 10 January 2017 01:08 PM

    Good move and good decision. This culprit should be kept behind bars until death.

    Bubble Banda Tuesday, 10 January 2017 01:11 PM

    Weerawansa is the only one who robbed in billions and acted like an Angel. He should not be released from the Jail.
