10 Dec, 2019
The Swiss Embassy employee who was allegedly kidnapped and later released, appeared before the Police Criminal Investigations Department (CID) today.
This is the third consecutive day that she is appearing before the CID to record a statement over the incident.
She was questioned for over four hours and later produced before the Colombo Judicial Medical Officer (JMO).
This is the second time she is being produced before the JMO.
The employee had claimed that she was kidnapped on 25 November while leaving the office and was asked about a CID officer who fled to Switzerland.
She had also claimed that she was sexually assaulted after being kidnapped.
The Government however said that some of her claims had not corroborated with the evidence unearthed during initial investigations. (Colombo Gazette)
