Reigning Mrs. World Caroline Jurie and former model Chula Padmendra have been released on bail by the Colombo Chief Magistrate's Court today over the incident which took place at the Mrs. Sri Lanka pageant on April 4.
Caroline and Chula Padmendra were arrested by the Cinnamon Gardens Police on April 8 over the incident and later released on police bail.
The Magistrate ordered them to be released on Rs. 100,000 surety bail.
A brawl erupted at the Mrs. Sri Lanka pageant after Caroline Jurie had removed the crown off Pushpika De Silva who was announced as the winner of the pageant, over allegations that she was a divorcee.
The matter was taken in court as Jurie had refused to apologize to Mrs Sri Lanka crowned Pushpika De Silva while Pushpika had refused to settle the matter without an apology. (Yoshitha Perera)
