The welikada murder case was postponed until 13th of December due to the second defender’s fusilier to appear before the special three-member panel. The case of the killing of inmates at the Welikada Prison in 2012 was taken up today before three high court Judges Gihan P. Kulathunga and Manjula Thilakaratne.
His lawyer was informed that the second accused in the case, Emil Ranjan Lalahewa, could not appear in the court as he contracted dengue.
Taking this into consideration, the High Court postponed the hearing to the 13th of December 2019.
