The Colombo High Court has stayed further proceedings in the traffic accident case involving Public Security Ministry Secretary Ravi Seneviratne. This interim order was issued following a revision application filed by Seneviratne. The case originated from a road accident in Wellawatte in 2023, where Seneviratne is charged with failing to prevent the accident, reckless driving, and driving under the influence of alcohol.
Seneviratne had previously pleaded guilty to the charge of failing to prevent the accident and was fined Rs. 2,500 by the Mount Lavinia Magistrate’s Court. Proceedings on the remaining charges have been deferred.
