  "summary": "The Colombo High Court has postponed the gold-plated T-56 case against former Minister Duminda Dissanayake and a Kazakh national, Aigul Sheragasina, until November 4. The case centers around the alleged possession of a gold-plated firearm at the Havelock City housing complex. The pre-trial conference, initially set for the same day, has been rescheduled due to the President’s Counsel representing the defense being indisposed. The Attorney General has filed indictments against the two accused, claiming they possessed an unlicensed gold-plated firearm and aided in its possession at the location on May 20, 2025.",
