Sajin Vass Gunawardena, former MP and one time close confidante of former President Mahinda Rajapaksa, appears to be turning to the gods for salvation, with a request to the Court to lift the travel ban imposed on him as he wishes to travel to India for ‘religious purposes’.
Vass
Gunawardena today requested Colombo Chief Magistrate Gihan Pilapitiya to lift the travel ban issued on him so he could travel to India from November 11 to 16, 2016. However, the Magistrate informed Gunawardena, who is currently out on bail, that he should submit his request on November 4, when the case with regard to the Mihin Lanka is taken up again.
Gunawardena was released on bail in September in the Mihin Lanka case where he is alleged to have entered into an illegal contract worth Rs. 880 million with a Singaporean Company to obtain ground handling related equipment.
Gunawardena is also out on bail in another case, where a businessman, has accused Gunawardena of defrauding his company Rs. 600 million.

RE: Sajin Turn To Gods For Salvation, Seeks Court Permission To Travel To India
Why not throw a few million of the stolen loot at the Traitor, Gon Sirisena Gamrala.
That is what Gotabaya Rajapaksa did to go to China and collect commissions. It works.

You got it right. Steal large sum from Public Purse and use little of it to bribe others so that you can be FREE to roam about outside the jail. KP must have paid huge sum to avoid jail.

Aiyo, thi sman would raise the question, why not he be allowed to leave the country if Yoshita andGotabaya were permitted.
I think it is a fair question from him and from us too.
Lanken SO CALLED JUDGES dont react accordingly – still not strict enough.

Why turn to Gods, turn to Aiyo Sirisena, the protector of Ali Baba and more than 40 thieves.
Why waste the time of the Gods, we have a living God to protect the murderers, rapists, thieves and all anti social elements. Probably Sajin missed out our President’s mighty speech on the need to protect murderers and thieves.
If that is not enough, we have Mr.Clean as well, why worry.

To which God did this crook,murderer from the shanties of Balapitiya turn to in his 10 year reign of mayhem?It is the God of Evil named Percy Mahendra (Mahinda) Rajafucksa of course . Sure in keeping with current practice bail is a sure possibility.Ohoma yang Sirisena.

Aiyo Sirisena!
Why not put a word to Magistrate to lift the travel bank on this dirty thief. Follow the same way you applied to get the bail for the killer of Lasantha Wicks. Gon Sira and murderous MaRa, Gota, Namal, and Yoshita are birds of same feather.

Why he wants to travel to India as he can go to kataragama devale that’s also an holy place. Do not allow to travel as he may abscond and leave to another country to get asylum.

Sellan Sena: You said this “BASTARD” and a “THUG” (sorry, that is how I see this fellow) was provided with PSD protection and sat with the President in the stage. You would be surprised to know how the President reacted to when some of the Civil Society members questioned it. The President on questioning, immediately gave a call to the the IGP and wanted to know how true the complain was. That means he did not know what was going till then. Do you believe him? Later it came to know that decision was made by another very senior Cabinet Member very close to the PM. This “bastard” should have been the FIRST to be sent to prison for life. Will that ever happen? No. That is definite. See the way all the ROGUES are getting court clearance to travel abroad on flimsy excuses. It has come to light that Yoshitha’s application for a visa to travel to Australia has been rejected. although he was granted permission to travel to Australia on medical grounds. So who are better in judgment?. Is it the Courts in Sri Lanka or the Australian Visa Officer? Judge for yourself.

Sellan Sena / November 1, 2016
Mr.Douglas Sir, with all due respect I agree with your comments.I also prey & dream let us have Leaders like the caliber of Australian Visa Officer who can take decisions act promptly without fear & favor.FYI although yahapalana governmentis only namesake still here Mahinda Mafia who runs the show.This Mafia is so powerful about six months ago I was arguing with some friends Field Marshall Fonseka case his appointment is ok with Law as far as I am concern & I headed for home on my motor bike soon after the alms-giving.Lo & behold yellow big tipper came from opposite direction jumped over island try to hit me as usual Medamulana style(I was heading for Colombo)near new bridge in Moratuwa Panadura bridge exactly in front of Laugh Gas station.I escaped attempt on my life.It appears somebody had identified me as pro yahapalan supporter & tipped the killers .
Even still out of office these murders willing kill those who oppose their opinion.No wonder still Government can’t put one corrupt member behind bars even in the Forces & Police Judiciary still Mahinda Mafia is powerful(sometime back lady journalist of “Nation” killed near Cinnamon Garden Police station who was critical of Minister Basil &his Ministryin similar manner) .What Sirisena-Wickramasinghe Government should know is if they don’t take control situation what happen to me will happen to the Government.Sadly President still acts as Secretary of SLFP not as Country’s President.So “Folks take care of yourself “Thamunge Araksava Thamun Balaganna” way the things going.

Very funny, this guy has stolen millions and he is free. a guy who stole a packet of soya is in jail for 4years, as he cannot pay the fine. How does this guy pay the lawyers, where did he get the funds. This guy didnt pass o/levels as his maths was poor. no wonder mihin lanka went bust. mahinda got stupids to run the enterprises as they wont question or object. our institutions need to be strong. the other crook cabral also should be investigated for his time in central bank. though a chartered accountant- a crook never the less.also his wife, with her shady deals should be in jail.

Sellan Sena: Thank you. Please don’t address me “Sir”. I am and want to be an ordinary guy who lives among my fellow countrymen. I am really disturbed the ordeal that you had to face. This culture established from 2010 t0 2014 still lives and those who “fathered” that want to continue with it. The irony is, even the so called “educated” (only to the level of acquiring alphabetical letters) and the “religious” (limited to adorning the “uniforms”) and the “uninformed” (yet innocent) people are there to stage that “Bring Back” drama. The other most UNFORTUNATE DILLEMA is, we failed to find a suitable “SOLUTION”. Anyway, this is something promising from where we can make a start to change further. Take care.

Mr.Douglas do you know the hilarious part of it I was the one who advised through emissary MR to get down Teleprompter by sending M.P.Dalles A to USA (since MR English is horrible) I even advised through same source to wish every person(politician)on B’ days as way of boosting his image when he was ,PM practice he still carry on(that time I was overseas). The list is too long what I done to him I did all this without asking any favor directly or indirectly which I am happy .If not I would have ended in FCID.

This SOB, the thug and brain less , Kalakanni Musalaya is going to God ?? – no God will pardon him – it is pathetic still yahapalanya could not bundle this rascal behind bars – Even if Yahapalanaya, fails to punish him, I am confident God will punish him.

Sajin vas going to India to seeks help of the GODS for Salvation. This is a load of crap. He is taking the chief minister of the UVA province and all the municipal councillors of Badulla municipal Council to Pune in India to see a waste to energy plant built by Cordeaun Blue. This a business trip. Ring the Chief Minister on 0718438488 and confirm. The CM & 15 municipal councillors are leaving on the 10th & returning on the 16th.
Sajin is planned to leave on the 11th & return on the 16th. He is using his black money to pay for the trip. This is Bribery & corruption.
Yahaplanya or hora planaya. CM what are you all up to

Sajin! you are one of the traitors/hooligans/thugs/wheeler-dealers/state fund abusers/cheaters/liars/money launderers/good-for-nothing pariahs that destroyed Sri Lanka; do you think gods would help you? For doing what? For destroying the good name of Sri Lanka? Not just once or twice but many a time! Gods help only those who do good. Go and ask for help from the Devil.
I doubt even that might work for you since Devil may think twice before helping a creature like you; he does not want to get into trouble for helping a good-for-nothing soul!
