The Magistrate's Court today discharged the eight accused including Gotabaya Rajapaksa from the Avant Garde floating armoury case filed by the Bribery Commission (BC).

Allowing the revision application filed against the orders made by the Magistrate's Court and the High Court over the maintainability of the Avant Garde floating armoury case, the Court of Appeal had earlier set aside both the orders and directed the Magistrate's Court to discharge the eight accused including Gotabaya Rajapaksa.
