The Colombo Fort Magistrate granted anticipatory bail yesterday, preventing Actress Damitha Abeyratne and her husband from being arrested until March 6. This comes following an alleged complaint accusing them of cheating Rs.3 million by promising to provide job opportunities in Korea.

Magistrate Thilina Gamage further issued notices directing CID’s Computer Crimes Unit OIC to appear before Court on next hearing date.

Senior Counsel Ajith Pathirana, appearing for Damitha Abeyratne and her husband, expressed his disappointment at the Inspector General of Police's decision to hand over the investigation involving Rs.3 million to the CID.

Of course. SJB ranks are full of such saviors of our country. Notably, the politicians who joined SJB recently.

Dumitha made a lot of money from the aragalaya. We have to pay more tax now, that's the change.

IG is there to protect politicians and hit at the Aragalaya participants. So the investigation must have been given over to another section of Police for suspects to receive maximum harassment

Front face of Aragalaya - fighting against corruption and a lot emotional talks (acting to the gallery). We know she is only a suspect at this stage - but I guess allegations with evidence. Future SJB MP?
