Colombo Chief Magistrate Gihan Pilapitiya today ordered the prison authorities to transfer former Minister Wimal Weerawansa’s wife Shashi, from the private hospital in Malabe to the Prison Hospital.

On a motion filed by the Prisons Department, the Magistrate also directed the prison authorities to obtain a medical report from the Prison’s Chief Medical Officer (CMO) and seek his advice on whether Ms. Weerawansa needs to be admitted to the Colombo National Hospital.

The Kaduwela Magistrate yesterday remanded her till today (25) on charges of having obtained a diplomatic passport by submitting fraudulent documents.

Do wrong? Pay for it. But WHY are people like Karuna Amman and KP still at large? Losing faith with MY3 and his government.

It is indeed strange how these people develop all these ailments only when remanded. They must be further charged for trying to cheat the law if they are found to be in good health.

Maybe she took something to be sick. How ever the JMO or the Prison hospital doctors should check her and if found false should remand her with out bail. This woman is a imposter and so is her husband. Strange why they are not arresting him.

You mean to arrest G.L Peiris? He was the foreign minister when Wimal and his wife got fake documented passport.

How convenient for these kind of people to fall ill immediately when arrest warrants are issued. Absolute dramas. Seen many in the past, guess the prison hospital also have the five star facilities.

So being a VIP and being arrested, they automatically fall ill all the time and get transferred to the medical ward. Amazing

How about arresting those who gave her this passport.Its impossible the passport officer not to have known that these were forged documents.This passport not authorised by the Foreign Affairs Ministry anyway.
