Massive visa racket case to be taken up on Nov. 5

Ten suspects including a sportsman and two sportswomen who are alleged to have assisted two persons to leave the country on British visas obtained on forged marriage certificates were produced yesterday before the Colombo Fort Magistrate and Additional District Judge Gihan Pilapitiya.

On an application by the Colombo Crimes Division (CCD) Inspector Rajapakse, the Judge earlier cancelled the bail ordered on the fourth suspect Mustafa Mohamed Faizer.

Inspector Rajappakse told court that the investigators had recovered several forged visas from the possession of the fourth suspect.

The 10 suspects are Amith Dhamikka Jayasekera, S.A. Nihal Jayantha, J. Fernando, Mustafa Mohamed Faizer, Ranga Kumar Wimalasena, K.B.D. Prasanna, Chaminda Jayantha, Lalania Irangaki, Geetha Dharsha and Prasanna Sampath

They have allegedly prepared forged Marriage Certificates and obtained visas from an Embassy in Colombo for Muslim and Tamil individuals seeking migration to the UK.

"We are also looking for a very senior sportswoman who is allegedly involved in this massive visa racket," SSP Senanayake said.

Jayantha Dias Nanayakkara, Sanjey Gamage appeared for the some of the suspects. Kingsley Hettiarachchi appeared for the complainant. The case will be called again on November 5.
