Colombo Additional Magistrate Nishantha Peiris said that the order on exhuming Wasim Thajudeen’s body will be given tomorrow, following a request made by the CID today.
The CID had earlier sought the Attorney General’s advice on exhuming the body.
The CID, along with the AG’s Department, made a representation at the courts today. Filing a report to the court, the CID said that it needs to obtain an analytical report on bone fractures on Thajudeen’s body.
The Additional Magistrate announced that he will give his decision tomorrow after considering the request.
Wasim Thajudeen, a former Captain of Havelock’s SC and a national rugger player, died in 2012 in what was then described as an accident. However, the CID recently informed courts that his death did not occur due to an accident.
