Sri Lankan actress Damitha Abeyratne and her husband have been further remanded over an allegation of financial fraud.
The couple was further remanded until April 24, 2024, by the Colombo Magistrate’s Court today.
Earlier in April, Damitha Abeyratne and her husband were arrested by the Criminal Investigations Department (CID) after having surrendered to the Fort Magistrate’s Court over the financial scam.
The Fort Magistrate’s Court had also imposed a travel ban on the couple, while the Court of Appeal had rejected their request for an interim order preventing their arrest under the Immigrants and Emigrants Act.
Damitha Abeyratne and her husband have been accused of defrauding money amounting to nearly Rs. 3 million by claiming to provide foreign jobs. (Newswire)
