Keheliya Rambukwella to continue prison hospital treatment

Doctors have recommended further medical attention for former Minister Keheliya Rambukwella.

Accordingly, Prisons Spokesperson Gamini B. Dissanayake says that Rambukwella will continue receiving treatment at the Prison Hospital.

He adds that the relevant medical reports have been submitted to the court, as per a court order.

The former Health Minister did not appear before the court owing to medical reasons.

Prisons Spokesperson Gamini B. Dissanayake confirmed that Rambukwella was unable to attend court proceedings due to him being ill.

The magistrate then ordered all seven suspects in the case, including the former Health Minister and the former Health Secretary, to be further remanded until February 29.
