Sri Lankan actress Damitha Abeyratne and her husband who were arrested by the Criminal Investigations Department (CID) over an allegation of financial fraud have been remanded until April 17, 2024.
The couple were remanded after being produced before the Fort Magistrate’s Court today.
Damitha Abeyratne and her husband were arrested yesterday after having surrendered to the Fort Magistrate’s Court over the financial scam.
Previously, the Fort Magistrate’s Court had imposed a travel ban on the couple in connection to the case filed on the financial scam.
Earlier in the week, the Court of Appeal had rejected the couple’s request for an interim order preventing their arrest under the Immigrants and Emigrants Act.
Damitha Abeyratne and her husband have been accused of defrauding money amounting to nearly Rs. 3 million by claiming to provide foreign jobs. (Newswire)
