Hashini Ratnayaka in prison till 17th

Hashini Ratnayaka, wife of distinguished singer Victor Ratnayaka was taken into police custody this morning (9) on suspicion of an incident of fraud concerning gold jewellery and after being produced before courts this afternoon has been remanded for a period of 1 week till

next 17th.

Having evaded giving a statement to the police at a time when steps were taken to apprehend her on court orders, this morning she had appeared before Tangalla Police through an attorney-at-law and was then taken into custody. Sometime back an investigation was launched as suspicious information was uncovered in relation to a fraud of Rs. 10 lakhs during her tenure at People's Bank, Tangalla. The said incident was further investigated on the instance of that bank manager having lodged an entry with police to the effect that the said amount of money had been robbed.

On the instance when family disputes cropped up, Mr. Victor Ratnayaka's son Lelum Ratnayaka brought out this topic and had said that in order to rescue her from this issue, his father had taken steps to settle losses sustained by bank account-holders who got trapped in this cheating case.
