Sugeeshwara Bandara, who served as private secretary to former President Gotabaya Rajapaksa, has been transferred to the prison hospital after a leg wound deteriorated while in remand custody.
Sugeeshwara Bandara, the former private secretary to ex-President Gotabaya Rajapaksa, was admitted to the prison hospital on August 21st following complications with a leg wound that had worsened during his detention, according to reports.
Bandara remains in remand custody as authorities investigate allegations that he received salaries from two state institutions simultaneously. The nature of these dual payments and the institutions involved have not been detailed in available reports.
The transfer to the prison hospital indicates that medical intervention became necessary while Bandara awaited further proceedings related to the salary investigation. Prison authorities typically make such transfers when detainees require specialized medical care that cannot be provided in regular holding facilities.
