Murder suspect Tangalla local body chairman released to hit back at British P.M. who made criticisms
(Lanka-e-News-24.Nov.2013, 8.00PM) Tangalle local body chairman Sampath Chndrapushpa Vidyanapathirane and other suspects involved in the murder of the British citizen Khurram Sheikh who were arrested suddenly and swiftly while also expediting court proceedings in view of the arrival of the British Prime Minister (P.M.) David Cameron for the commonwealth summit held recently , were released on bail again after the British P.M. castigated the MaRa government openly when he attended the summit . It is to be noted that there were as many as 17 charges against the suspects , and after they were read out in court , they had been released.
Sis suspects including Tangalle chairman , Obada Arachige Lahiru Kelum alias Ravi Uduwage , Saman Deshapriya and Weerapullige Praneeth Chaturange were enlarged on bail yesterday (22) . Since this case was transferred to the high court Colombo as a special one , it was heard by te judge Ms.Kumudini Wickremesinghe. The principal reason behind the granting of bail was MaRa’s attorney general not raising any objection to it. When the attorney general who represents the plaintiff does not object to granting bail , it becomes necessary to grant bail to the accused.
This ghastly stigmatic murder committed in 2011 was not subjected to any proper legal inquiry , and an M.P of Britain had to arrive here to inquire into this.
Simultaneous with the CHOGM summit this murder of the British national and the lack of proper investigation sparked a tremendous controversy . The Rajapakse regime was compelled therefore to transfer the case to the high court Colombo and remand its local body chairman involved in the crime. However after the conclusion of the CHOGM summit , the lawless Rajapakses who were provoked over the bitter forthright criticisms of the British P.M. against the government retaliated by releasing the suspects in the case on bail while the criminal charge sheets had been served on them.
Rajapakses have again by these (il)legal processes only wittingly or unwittingly underlined the lawlessness prevailing in the country , and the fast degeneration of the SL judicial system into MaRa jungle law system headed by brutes and beasts in human forms.
