Lodging a complaint with CID, Justice Minister Wijedasa Rajapksha has urged the CID Director to conduct an investigation into the false and malicious Facebook Post alleging that he as the Minister of Justice and Prison has given special treatment to remand prisoner Thilini Priyamali.

The Justice Minister maintained that the dissemination of the said untruthful and malicious post via electronic media regarding a pending case has caused a severe prejudice to the entire legal system. 

The Justice Minister further said dissemination of such information would also affects the integrity of the Judicial System and the Criminal Justice process in Sri Lanka.

While attaching the copy of the post and the details of the person who posted the alleged false allegation, Justice Minister has urged the CID Director to conduct an inquiry at his earliest convenience and report the matter to Fort Magistrate's Court for further action.

In his complaint, the Justice Minister said it tarnishes the legal system of Sri Lanka and creates a prejudice on the minds of the people at large since the matter refers to an ongoing case in the Fort Magistrate's Court. (Lakmal sooriyagoda)

    All the Politicians are involved in Thilini Priyamali case all must resign

    This is the truth Thursday, 20 October 2022 08:22 PM

    Men are biologically born to be easily aroused by the woman’s body. And the women cruelly exploit this weakness to the hilt. Yet women say that they need more power in this world.

    Ram Thursday, 20 October 2022 08:27 PM

    Why dont you order for an inquire on special treatment given by police to this woman.

    roshan Thursday, 20 October 2022 08:57 PM

    All these allegations are not entirely baseless when Rakhuta Rajapakse the son appearing as the lawyer for Thilini. The legal system in this country is already tarnished. Don't play a saint here.

    totally agree

    Not CID to probe. You must resign. There is no integrity of the Judicial System and the Criminal Justice process in Sri Lanka to protect. People like to have destroyed them. Pls resign.

    It has become the norm of all politicians to cry "CID...CID...CID....." when there is an allegation made against them. Also the masses have not forgotten the Avant Guard Senathipathi related allegations.

    sack all parlimentarians involved in the case never give an appintment for life

    umas Friday, 21 October 2022 02:51 AM

    All the allegations are truth, people got the right to say, why are you worried ,have you or you son invested,

    Justice not meted out equally in SL Friday, 21 October 2022 03:30 AM

    Well, Mr. Rajapaksha/Rajapakse, I believe in the saying "No smoke without Fire". Thilini is given white glove treatment by the same COPS who used unnecessary-violence against the protesting Mother and her child recently. Have you got anything to say? Also, how about the thrashing of the IUSF? Hmmm, something smells rotten here, sorry!

    and when these Ministers and MPs are haggling over who said what .or suing for damages in the millions to prove innocent on what ever ..a Prime Minister resigns in 45 days in UK for she could not deliver her promises to the public ..Democracy just look away from the little isle .for they have let you down .

    lion Friday, 21 October 2022 06:52 AM

    You have proved in the past through several instances of your duplicity in conduct and character. During yahapalana regime you have stated that while you hold the ministry of justice you never allow Gotha to be arrested.The news wildly circulated but you never denied it. Then your connection with Senadipathi of avanguard was reveled and you have being torn to pieces by S F in the parliament showing pictures proving your close association to Senadipathi.Now here again your son is representing Piyamali at courts. So these complains are for public consumption to show you are innocent , But remember your image as deel dasa is embedded in the minds of the people in this country and it will not be easy to erase it.

    Thilini madam is releasing the secret names through her other contacts. Looks like all these politicians have invested black money with her.

    Kaputu Kaak Kaak Friday, 21 October 2022 08:04 AM

    Everyone knows about the entire system in this country. You trying to whitewash anything is of no use. By doing so, do you think you can change the minds of the people now? Go to a public place and try talking about it and see the treatment you will get. You will know what I mean.

    Dayan Friday, 21 October 2022 08:10 AM

    It can be probed but the allegation could be suspected as it was revealed in court that his chamber is appearing for the accused in the case.

    Who brought this piece of flesh? Friday, 21 October 2022 09:09 AM

    This type of news is to call for attention, to the womanizers. What is wrong here? If a man has influence, and he uses it on behalf of apiece of flesh, and that flesh has many acquaintances, holding power, wealth and influence, so why not help her? By the way, where was this piece of flesh hiding all these days? and who introduced it to the affluent society? What is the purpose of bringing in someone out of the blues? Is it to flush out black money? Even Asad is entangled? Salman Rushdie has an apt sentence for this type women. "**** them and roll over." That is what they are good for; not to invest in millions." These flesh hunters are trying to find a hole (I mean hole in the earth) to hide their heads, while rest of their body is out in open. For sure; there will be several family family break up, if the wives are sensitive! If they are as senseless their husband? "Who cares ."

    Roshanaly Friday, 21 October 2022 09:33 AM

    What about your son appearing for her. Are you sure that you won't give legal advice to your son??

    Ian Friday, 21 October 2022 09:40 AM

    Very Funny...this is how the brains of politicians work. So the CID without investigating who is trying to protect this woman, has to investigate if Wijedasa Rajapaksa is behind it. Then perhaps another political clown. Why dont the Minister instruct the CID to investigate who is behind it. he..he..

    Aquarius Friday, 21 October 2022 10:32 AM

    Agree with Ram. If he is not the one, find out who is responsible for this special treatment.

    Thomas Dharmachandra Friday, 21 October 2022 11:00 AM

    You inquire into the allegation, why Thilini was NOT HANDCUFFED when she was taken to the World Trade Centre Office?

    Moh Sleiman Saturday, 22 October 2022 04:51 AM

    Any one with the name RAJAPAKSHA who is in power are involved in this scam.THILINI had all the support from big guns.So please WIJEDASA dont play innocent you are a big crook like the rest of the RAJAPAKSHAS.

    umas Saturday, 22 October 2022 02:07 PM

    Minister you are responsible for law and order in this country NOT to suppress it
