Court refuses bail application

Colombo High Court Judge Deepali Wijesundera yesterday refused an application for bail in respect of Capt. Senaka Harippriya de Silva and remanded him till May 3, 2011.

In this case Sarath Fonseka is charged with having employed about ten soldiers who were deserters for his election campaign. Capt. Senaka de Silva is alleged to have assisted Sarath Fonseka to employ the deserters for the election campaign. Capt. Senaka de Silva was the election secretary for Sarath Fonseka during the election period. On an application by ULG Bandara, Counsel for Sarath Fonseka, Judge Wijesundera directed the Prison authorities to provide hot water and other facilities to Sarath Fonseka who is sick, according to his counsel.

Senior State Counsel Dammith Totawatta appeared with the CID for the prosecution vehemently objected to the accused being granted bail and said that he had not given correct facts in his affidavits to court. He had also not told the truth to his lawyers about his position in the Army. Senior Attorney Saliya Peiris who appeared for Capt. Senaka de Silva with Roshan Nanayakkara moving for bail said that their client's business also had been hampered due to being in remand custody for several months. U.L.G. Bandara with Manjula Pathiraja, Mervey Silva, Bandara Ekanayake, Anuradha Liyanage and Chathura Anushka Amarasinghe instructed by Paul Ratnayake Associate appeared for Sarath Fonseka.

The case will be called again on May 3.
