Minister Johnston Fernando was acquitted from three cases filed by the Bribey Commission for deploying Sathosa employees for political activities.

The three cases were filed against three suspects, including Minister Johnston Fernando, by the Bribery Commission, alleging that they caused a loss of nearly Rs. 40 millio to the government.

The order was issued when the case was taken up before Colombo Chief Magistrate Buddhika C. Ragala today.
