Nine employees at a copper factory in Wellampitiya which is belived to be linked to the recent terror attacks have been released on bail by the Colombo Chief Magistrates Court today (May 06).
The suspects were released owing to the failure of the Police to file charges against the suspects under the Prevention of Terrorism Act or any other decree, Additional Magistrate Priyantha Liyanage declared during the hearing.
Accordingly, they were released on two surety bails of Rs 500,000 each by the Additional Magistrate.
However, the 10th suspect who was also arrested in connection with the incident was ordered to be remanded in order to be produced before the Terrorism Investigations Department for questioning.
The suspects were serving as employees at a copper factory which was run by Shangri-La suicide bomber Insan Ibrahim.
