Gampaha High Court Judge Priyantha Fernando today set bail conditions for Brigadier Anura Deshapriya Gunawardena and Sergeant Lalith Gray, two personnel who were part of the Rathupaswala incident in 2013.

Twenty six individuals were also injured in the incident including several journalists.
The Judge set a cash bail of Rs. 100,000 and two sureties of Rs. 3 million each for Brigadier Gunawardena and a Rs. 50,000 cash bail and a surety of Rs. 2 million for Sergeant Gray.
Previously, Gampaha Chief Magistrate, D.A. Ruwan Pathirana extended the remand of the four suspects, Brigadier Gunawardena and three army personnel - Army Staff Sergeant Dingiri Arunge Sirisena, Sergeant Lalith Gray and Corporal Jayasundara Mudiyanselage Thilakaratne until 23 August.

This is a good lesson to all government servants, soldiers, police and everybody who works for the state. Do not wash laundry for your ministers, do your job proudly, valiantly, professionally and go back to your family with a smile. When you wash laundry for these dirty politicians, you will either face justice one day and if you manage to evade that, natural justice will one day find you.
