Rajitha files another anticipatory bail application

23 Dec 2019

Former Health Minister Dr. Rajitha Senaratne today filed another anticipatory bail application before the Colombo Chief Magistrate’s Court against moves to arrest him. The former Minister fears the Criminal Investigation Department (CID) will arrest him over a media briefing he hosted on “white van” abductions. Senaratne filed an anticipatory bail application last week but it was rejected and he later submitted a revised application. The former Minister appeared in court today and submitted a third application. The CID is investigating claims made by Senaratane on alleged white van abductions prior to the Presidential election. During the Presidential election campaign, Senaratane had brought before the media two man said to be drivers of a ‘white van’ used for abductions. A man who had claimed to be a driver of a ‘white van’ used to abduct people and another person who claimed to have been a victim of a ‘white van’ abduction were later arrested and remanded till 27 December.
