The former administrator of the Finance Minister’s official Facebook account was ordered to be remanded till October 27 by Colombo Additional Magistrate Nishantha Peiris today on charges of maintaining the FB page without the ministry's consent.

The CID arrested Diyagama Mudiyanselage Rupa Sagara on a complaint made by the finance ministry secretary and produced him in the Colombo Chief Magistrate’s Court on Thursday.

The CID informed Court that the suspect was appointed administrator of the account in September 2015 and removed in December 2015 for posting contents without ministry permission. However, according to the complainant the suspect had continued to post contents on the account though banned from doing so.
