The Colombo Fort Magistrate Court has imposed a travel ban on former Member of Parliament Johnston Fernando.
It is related to an investigation on allegations of using an unregistered luxury car. This order has been issued after the Criminal Investigation Department informed the court that the vehicle in question was brought to Sri Lanka saying that it was being sent to England, but it was not registered in Sri Lanka and was traveling on the road using a fake number plate.
The police is conducting an investigation regarding who brought the car in question to Sri Lanka, when and who used it. These investigations have been started based on a tip-off that this car has been parked suspiciously in the car park of the Hilton Hotel.
