Lawyer of MP Duminda Silva informed the Colombo Magistrate today that Mr.Silva would not be able to come to Sri Lanka for at least two months as he had to undergo another surgery in Singapore today.

President’s Counsel Hemantha Warnakulasuriya said former presidential adviser Bharatha Lakshman Premachandra’s daughter Hirunika was continuing to make media statements on the court and its proceedings.

He said she must stop this or else he would expose to the Court and the media the news items that appeared against Hirunika on websites.
Mr. Warnakulasuriya said Hirunika had asked the IGP to arrest Duminda Silva whom she alleged had come back to Sri Lanka. Because of this news item, media personnel had gathered at the airport to catch a glimpse of Duminda Silva.

CID officers Shani Abeysekera submitted that Duminda Silva’s statement had been sent to the Attorney General and he would respond to the CID very soon.

Colombo Additional Magistrate Prasanna De Alwis in his order on the contempt charges filed by Hemantha Warnakulasuriya PC observed that the Magistrate’s Court did not have jurisdiction to hear a contempt of court offence said to have been committed outside court. He dismissed the contempt charges against Hurunika Premachandra. The Magistrate said the parties can seek redress from the Court of Appeal against the dismissal. The suspects were remanded till June 21.(FT)

Probably plastic surgery so he can return with a new identity.

Jagath Leanagej Tuesday, 07 August 2012 06:03 AM

Mata mathaka nehe.

Andrew Pitugala Wednesday, 08 August 2012 11:31 AM

He will have plastic surgery and return to Srilanka with a new face and name. He will then be a nominated MP and continue with his alleged notorious activities.

john Tuesday, 07 August 2012 05:52 AM

Nodrog Tuesday, 07 August 2012 06:11 AM

Rajinder A Tuesday, 07 August 2012 08:03 PM

What ? There is not a single commet that someone is feeling sorry about this fellow. So why is the country paying for a man like this ?

Lalindra J. Tuesday, 07 August 2012 07:23 AM

What is the enhanced security cover we see around the environs of the National Hospital with Regent Street completely closed again for normal traffic and traffic police stationed at every entrance?

Chris Tuesday, 07 August 2012 07:42 AM

Less problems for the country, so he better stay there forever.

Puran Tuesday, 07 August 2012 11:38 PM

More likely. He never had one that was working anyway. Too much "KUDU"

Sarneris Tuesday, 07 August 2012 11:33 PM

and there are thousands of Sri Lankans dying just because they could not afford a life saving drug.

Ravi Wednesday, 08 August 2012 12:49 AM

Did the judge says he need to see a doctors' report to prove that he needs more surgery not a paid lawyers' statement and why not?

Cap Tuesday, 07 August 2012 07:52 AM

I think he might have forgotten that he is one of the biggest drug dealers in SL, and he is a Thug.. but i guess he would have forgotten how to fight also by now the way his lawyers are saying that he has forgotten everything hahahha lol.. This is such hypocritical way of justice. if it was a normal middle class person do u think this would have been let to go this far?? this show's that we cannot trust our Forces, Govt, or even our Courts for Equal justice to be given to EVERY Human or person in our Country.. Feel soo sad for our Mother Land and where it will be ending in a few years time..

Haffez Tuesday, 07 August 2012 07:41 AM

Bikechain Bubbleband Tuesday, 07 August 2012 08:07 AM

It is clear that Govt. is trying to protect Duminda Silva. But very soon either good or bad, he has to face the verdict from the people of SriLanka for all his wrong doings.

Kiris Baba Amaray Tuesday, 07 August 2012 08:10 AM

Duminda cannot be hidden in this manner. You guys think that we are fools?

dilshan Tuesday, 07 August 2012 07:56 AM

wonder who is paying his hospital bills for the past few months? ... would have run into millions.

Amarathunga Chandika Tuesday, 07 August 2012 08:14 AM

MR please tell your guys not to interfere with the Justice, our country has gone to dogs, the entire world is watching how you govern the nation. Very sad Mr.President.

Jack in the Box Tuesday, 07 August 2012 08:15 AM

Maybe he is to undergo a SEX change...

Godagampala Rohana Tuesday, 07 August 2012 08:17 AM

Muheed Jeeran Tuesday, 07 August 2012 08:58 AM

It is a total cove up and truth will be come into light very soon. 21st Century Goliath also will face the same fate similar to the biblical story...

Sujeewa Devarani Tuesday, 07 August 2012 09:00 AM

Maybe he changed his mind after Hirunika made a fuss about his coming down.And what a sharp tongue she has.

He w"ll come to country ,after the election is over

Calistus Jayatilleke Wednesday, 08 August 2012 08:50 AM

The defence lawyer, whose "reputation" is known very well in the country, and his team are trying to draw red herrings with silly talk of "contempt of court" just to save the skin of the drug lord who is flushed with money and to impress the VIPs who are safeguarding the culprit. Dirty politics has crept into every sphere of life in this so called "Miracle of Asia"

ASKYNICE Wednesday, 08 August 2012 04:12 PM

Our country is injustice, corrupted and highly politicized courts system even educational system such as A/L, had never before.

Sadarana_Kota Tuesday, 07 August 2012 09:09 AM

How many surgeries? he should be a vegetable by now for the number of surgeries he went through. if not we can call him R Duminda Miracle

hard Tuesday, 07 August 2012 09:25 AM

BUT REMEMBER HE IS EXPORTING FROM SING.

Andy Wednesday, 08 August 2012 04:14 AM

That must be the real story.

samntha Tuesday, 07 August 2012 09:20 AM

No need justice for this cheep lady, if she stands against the duminda why still licking kings back?? she knows that king support to duminda!!!

Hussain Tuesday, 07 August 2012 09:33 AM

I like this woman's confidence!

Yehiya Tuesday, 07 August 2012 09:49 AM

No point of talking him. God punishment is the best. All know the end of judical system in Sri Lanka & duty of AG. Hirunikas father is valuable man for politics. My salute to him.

Kalan Tuesday, 07 August 2012 09:54 AM

Yes, of course, we are fools. That's we elected these bloody politician. Anyway, when court call him, he will have operation. Not a surprise, or else he is in SL.

Cyclops Tuesday, 07 August 2012 10:03 AM

No, that rumor was spread by the powers that be just to see the reaction of the people. Obviously it was not good news, so he stays back in Singapore to undergo another operation this time to make him dumb in the real sense of the word!!!

Ronny Tuesday, 07 August 2012 10:06 AM

The more that Duminda stays in Singapore the more the taxpayers loose.

Mr..Bean Tuesday, 07 August 2012 10:32 AM

Who is fooling whom? Whenever he is supposed to appear in the Courts, it seems the doctors in Singapore are arranging surgeries. There is somebody powerful behind this, otherwise why is it dragging in this manner.

buffaloa citizen Tuesday, 07 August 2012 10:20 AM

You are absolutely right. Thus I would suggest her to marry Duminda without wasting public time on this issue. All problems sorted.

buffaloa citizen Tuesday, 07 August 2012 10:39 AM

Anarkali does not like this type of jokes.

Adrian Wednesday, 08 August 2012 05:01 AM

When they mean shot in the head, do they mean shot in the back.

Cant Singapore keep him for good?

sizzler Tuesday, 07 August 2012 10:57 AM

Let the people who gives verdicts read your comment.

Vicks Tuesday, 07 August 2012 11:31 AM

If he can take a plot of an Indian movie, he could fake his death and come back to Sri Lanka with that new identity. But, his action would expose him - Horses always kick!

ruzaick Tuesday, 07 August 2012 11:42 AM

Does he have a Brain to go that much of surgeries. hmmmm i wonder whats inside his skull

jayantha Wednesday, 08 August 2012 05:37 AM

We don't want him as a frankenstein! Do we?

Ran banda Tuesday, 07 August 2012 01:29 PM

Yes he qualifies ............ he has no brains

Sonali De Silva Tuesday, 07 August 2012 01:38 PM

Was he even shot in the first place? How could someone who was shot twice in the head at close range even survive?

Kapila Tuesday, 07 August 2012 01:37 PM

Can any body tells the cost of his stay in this private hospital. who bears the cost. Why the opposition is silent regarding this. public needs answers for all the questions. Many people don't have money to get their basic medical requirement.

Renu Tuesday, 07 August 2012 02:17 PM

Do a brain transplant with a pig's brain

Renu Tuesday, 07 August 2012 02:19 PM

General public want him punished, so whenever he is back with a brain or otherwise he should be punished

Mims Tuesday, 07 August 2012 02:45 PM

This scoundrel will do anything to stay away from facing the music back home. He has been protected, and supported, from the regime, and is wasting tax payer's money wining and dining in Singapore. This is disgraceful.

KAF Tuesday, 07 August 2012 03:07 PM

Wish him good luck for the surgery, may the surgeons be able to find brain, at least this time!
(Now i know why some neuro-surgeon put on magnifying glasses......!)
