Colombo, Dec 1 (Daily Mirror) - Pastor Jerome Fernando has been arrested by the Criminal Investigations Department (CID) this morning in connection with an ongoing investigation against him, his lawyer said.
Fernando arrived at the CID this morning for the second consecutive day to give a statement in connection with a controversial Sunday sermon.
On Thursday, he gave an 8-hour-long statement to the CID and was arrested this morning after recording further statements.
Pastor Fernando arrived at the Bandaranaike International Airport (BIA) on Wednesday morning following a court order that directed authorities not to arrest him in connection with a controversial Sunday sermon.
Fernando, who had been under CID investigations for contentious remarks against Buddhism, Islam and Hinduism, left the country on May 15 this year.
Pastor Fernando will be produced in court, the lawyer told the media outside the CID..

The law allows for bail for most offenses. So what is needed is well versed clever lawyers.

Seems a staged drama ... playing to the gallery .... there would be a few criminals both in politics and business who would be laughing their sides out and celebrating that they are confirmed untouchables.

It was clear that he would be arrested. The judgment was not to arrest him on arrival

No one is fooled.

Police did their job. It will be complete if they object to bail until they cross check the statement made by Jerome. If bailed he can influence the people who will be contacted for cross checking

He has used the Gold route at BIA, to come to Sri Lanka. Money to swim? Is this money earned by him?

Dont worry jesus will help him cook the books and articulate a cover up, and make sure he has submitted his Annual income report to the tax department for the last 10 financial years.

If God is for you who can be against you! Trust in the Lord Jesus and do not despair whatever the problem is he will see you through.

Yes of course, provided you are a true disciple sans billions in your personal bank accounts. It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.
