The Former Homagama Pradeshiya Sabha Chairman Indika Koralage and five others who were arrested in connection with assaulting a businessman at a Godagama Hotel, were remanded until July 13 by the Homagama Magistrate's Court yesterday.

They were arrested by the Athurugiriya Police after they surrendered to Police yesterday morning and were produced before the Homagama Magistrate.
