Colombo High Court Judge Padmini Ranawaka today issued notice on the Attorney General and the OIC of the FCID to appear before the Colombo High Court on June 19 to consider a bail application filed on behalf of former Foreign Ministry Monitoring MP Sajin Vaas Gunawardena.

Mr. Gunawardena’s instructing lawyer filed the application to seek bail for Mr. Gunawardena by way of a revision against the refusal of bail to Mr. Gunawardena by Fort Magistrate Priyantha Liyanage on June 3.

On that occasion Magistrate Liyanage refused to grant bail to Mr. Gunawardena in the case in which Mr. Gunawardena was alleged to have misused several vehicles belonging to the Presidential Secretariat.

Mr. Gunawardena’s Counsel alleged that Magistrate Liyanage had errored by not considering the main point raised by the defence in their submissions when seeking bail for their client. (T. Farook Thajudeen)

It is amazing how these corrupt politicians stay out when innocent public who were merely doing their duty are in.

"Mr. Gunawardena was alleged to have misused several vehicles belonging to the Presidential Secretariat" If this man is locked up for the above reason that is not a major crime per se, then there is something is wrong in the judicial system. He should have been released on bail a longtime ago.
