The latest development comes barely 72 hours after the Gangodawila Magistrate
Anura Kumara Herath revoked a seal order on the newspaper office saying the
Criminal Investigation Department (CID) failed to produce further evidence
against the publisher.
However the Editor of the newspaper Chandana Sirimalwatte continues to remain in
custody and it was not clear when the police would produce him before a court,
the spokesperson added.
Mr. Sirimalwatte was earlier questioned by police on two separate occasions
during and after the Southern Provincial Council elections held in October last
year for articles relating to mansions being built by top government officials.
