Colombo HC defers hearing of Keheliya’s corruption case

The Colombo High Court has ordered for the case filed by the Commission to Investigate Allegations of Bribery or Corruption (CIABOC) against former Health Minister Keheliya Rambukwella and the former Chairman of the State Printing Corporation, to be called for hearing on November 29.

 

This order was issued when the relevant plaint was called before Colombo High Court Judge Sujeewa Nissanka today (03).

 

At that time, the accused former minister Keheliya Rambukwella had also appeared before the court.

 

Accordingly, the High Court judge had ordered the case to be heard on November 29 as previously scheduled.

 

Former minister Keheliya Rambukwella and former chairman of the State Printing Corporation Jayampathi Bandara Heenkenda stand accused of allegedly misappropriating the funds belonging to the corporation to pay Rambukwella’s personal telephone bill, amounting to Rs. 230,000 between March and April 2012, during his tenure as the Minister of Mass Media.
