Former United National Party (UNP) General Secretary Tissa Attanayake was today granted permission to travel abroad by Colombo High Court Judge Wikum Kaluarachchi..

Subsequently, his passport was released to him by the Court.

Filing a motion into the case in which he was accused of allegedly publishing a letter with forged signatures of the then common opposition candidate Maithripala Sirisena and the then opposition leader Ranil Wickramasinghe during 2015 presidential election campaign, Mr. Attanayake sought court permission to travel to Australia between April 10 and 28 to visit his daughter.

How come these forgers get special privileges? Aren't they equal before the law? What about the Aussie Embassy, how come they are able to grant him a visit visa being on bail??

Meet Prez and PM to ask pardon. They will take action to withdraw complaints. Once freed never keep company with RAJAPAKSAS. An eye opener for most in JO. via DM Android App
