The Court of Appeal yesterday (25) extended the Interim Order preventing the FCID from arresting former Defence Secretary Gotabhaya Rajapaksa.
The Court re-fixed to mention the appeal filed by Gotabhaya Rajapaksa, seeking an Order to prevent Financial Crime Investigation Division (FCID) from arresting him, on 28 September.
The Court reinforced the Interim Order by making it an Inter Parte Interim Order, preventing the Financial Crime Investigation Division (FCID) from acting on the Certificate (B Report), under the offences against the Public Property Act, in the Magistrate’s Court against former Defence Secretary Gotabhaya Rajapaksa.
Rajapaksa contends the construction of the D. A. Rajapakse memorial and museum is a civil matter, and that there is no criminal breach of trust and he has not misappropriated money.
