Former Health Minister Keheliya Rambukwella, his wife, and daughter, who were arrested and released on bail earlier today, have been remanded for failing to fulfil bail conditions.
The Colombo Magistrate’s Court granted bail to the three individuals who had been arrested by the Bribery Commission earlier today.
Rambukwella, his wife, and daughter had appeared before the Bribery Commission to provide statements with regard to investigations into their assets.
Thereafter, they were arrested and produced before the Colombo Magistrate’s Court, after which they were ordered to be released on bail.
Colombo Magistrate Thanuja Lakmali had ordered them to be released on Rs. 50,000 cash bail and 09 sureties of Rs. 05 million.
However, due to their inability to fulfil the bail conditions, Keheliya Rambukwella, his wife, and daughter have been placed under remand. (Newswire)
