Former Minister Basil Rajapaksa was granted permission by the Colombo High Court today to travel to the US for medical treatment.

He sought court permission to travel abroad by filing two motions in connection with two cases in which he was accused of.

Considering the motion on the GI pipes case, High Court Judge A.A.R. Heiyantuduwa allowed him to travel to the US between August 10 and September 10.

Meanwhile, High Court judge Vikum Alluarachchi allowed him to travel to the US between August 19 and September 19 after considering the motion on the roofing sheet case. (Farook Thajudeen)

Why no medical facilities in Sri Lanka?? There is no point in these travel bans. The moment they make an application they are allowed to go. A big joke

If someone is so ill that he can not be treated in Sri Lanka, but need medical help abroad, he is by no means fit enough to do politics.

Lasanthas case is dying so is this guys case. Better if this country is democratically democratic and release all prisoners and close all pending cases. To me all are innocent. Namal will agree with me.
