Colombo, August 20 (Daily Mirror) - Colombo Chief Magistrate Thanuja Lakmali Jayathunga today ordered the Bribery Commission to publish a written proclamation on former Minister Rajitha Senaratne, who is alleged to be evading court, directing him to appear before court on August 29 under Section 60(1) of the Code of Criminal Procedure.

The order was issued following a motion filed before the Colombo Chief Magistrate’s Court by the investigating officer and the Assistant Director of the Commission to Investigate Allegations of Bribery or Corruption, seeking such a directive.

The motion was filed under Section 60(1) of the Code of Criminal Procedure, requesting that the suspect be compelled to provide a statement to the Bribery Commission on a specified date.

Rajitha is a politician who alwys thought that he is above the law. Recently he escaped from a case when the key witnesses failed to show up. He may be thinking that he can handle any situation.

Rajitha it is enough you play games with the Government. How long you can play hide and seek game. Now the entire nation knows about you and your dirty son how you both got together and played out public funds. Surrender to the Police and face the case. Anyhow Welikade Prison doors are opened to you man.

Now Rajitha will go and get himself get admitted in a Private Hospital. This time never allow that to happen and try to arrest him, now Ranil is protecting him hiding him in secret places.

the warrant is still valid and he can be arrested on his way to court from his hide out. Why play hide and seek if you are not guilty
