Journalist Susil Kindelpitiya was granted bail by the Colombo High Court today after the lady who lodged a complainant against him said her statement given to the Court by the police was incorrect.
The lady said in an affidavit to the Court that she never saw a weapon in Kindelpitiya’s vehicle at the time of his arrest.
The UNP Colombo district candidate was arrested by the police over a complaint lodged by a woman alleging abuse and harassment. The former Sirasa News Director was arrested after the lady complained that he had abused her and later threatened her with a weapon.
