HC grants Yoshitha permission to go overseas

Former President Mahinda Rajapaksa’s son Yoshitha Rajapaksa has been granted permission by the Colombo High Court to travel overseas.

An overseas travel ban was previously imposed on Yoshitha Rajapaksa following the hearing of a case filed against him, where he was released on bail.

However, he had recently made a request from the Court to travel to Australia and Japan for a period of two months for the purpose of seeking medical treatment.
