No anticipatory bail for Elephant rogue judge ! Nothing to bar him from being arrested – Magistrate

-First time in SL’s history a judge hid to evade law !

(Lanka-e-News -31.May.2016, 11.30PM)  The notorious robber judge Thilina Gamage better known as Elephant rogue  who is a disgrace to the judiciary including himself , and is now evading arrest after kicking the laws into the dustbin filed  an anticipatory bail application  in  the Gangodawila magistrate court yesterday (30) . The magistrate Kanishka Wijeratne while postponing the hearing to Thursday said , there is no bar to the arrest of Thilina.

Prior to hearing the case , the magistrate inquired from the Attorney General’s (AG) department counsel whether there is any objection to his hearing this case. Lanka  e news over a period of time had been reporting that since Kanishka is a bosom pal of rogue Thilina , the former hearing this case can be influenced  by  vested interests , and can be an issue .

The State counsel representing the AG stated it is not his objection that matters , rather it is for the magistrate to   decide whether he should hear or withdraw from the case. Subsequently , Kanishka himself heard the case.

When  he inquired whether a re presentation must be made in this case , the AG’s department explained  anticipatory bail application is not being taken up , and the trial alone shall be heard. The AG’s department pinpointed , in a Public property case , anticipatory bail cannot be granted.

The lawyer for Thilina  Gamage made a request to grant his client an opportunity to surrender to court. The magistrate in reply said , since there is an order given by court already to appear before the CID , Thilina can make his appearance there. The CID said , he is in hiding and he is  to be arrested.

The magistrate who did not grant anticipatory bail postponed the hearing in respect of the application while stating  there is nothing to  bar the arrest of  Thilina.

Meanwhile , against the unlawful and disgraceful actions of Thilina Gamage , a wave of bitter resentment and anger   is spreading among the legal fraternity . It is their view , it is most deplorable that a judge himself had stooped to this lowliest level to undermine  the sacrosanct legal maxim ‘ everyone is equal before the law.’ H e has insulted the whole judicial sphere , they pointed out.

This shameless robber judge Thilina Vincent Sulochana Gamage alias Thilina Gamage  the Elephant robber was ordered to be present at the CID on the 25 th of May, but he went into hiding on the 24 th night . This was the first time in SL’s history a judge pulled the wool over the eyes of the law and went into hiding . It is 7 days as at today since he hid. 

Based on reports reaching  Lanka e news inside information division , there  had been many cases heard in courts against Thilina Gamage in the past , but using the name Sulochana Vincent  he had suppressed the cases. Judges and lawyers have helped him in those instances, it is learnt . Details of these lawlessness  shall be revealed shortly.
