The Colombo Additional Magistrate’s Court has ordered to suspend payment of insurance money related to the late businessman Dinesh Schaffter for a period of one week.
Colombo Additional Magistrate Rajindra Rajasuriya issued the order to the relevant Insurance Company when the case in this regard was taken up for hearing today.
The order was issued following a request made by the Homicide and Organized Crime Division of the Police which is investigating the death.
The Division had sought an order from the court stating that the death of Dinesh Schaffter has been proven to be a murder and for the insurance company to delay the payment to assist the ongoing investigations. (NewsWire)
