Two Romanian nationals who pleaded guilty after they were arrested for withdrawing a large sum of cash from a Bank in Colombo using fake credit cards, were ordered deported by the Colombo High Court today (Jan 27).
The suspects, who had been arrested in February, 2011 and pleaded guilty before the court today, were fined Rs. 80,000 each and handed one-year sentence suspended for five years.
High Court Judge Kumuduni Wickramasinghe also ordered the duo to pay the Rs. 165,000 they had defrauded from the bank and ordered the Controller of Immigration and Emigration to blacklist them.
