Sri Lanka, Sept. 19 -- Former State Minister Shashindra Rajapaksa, who is currently in remand custody, was today ordered to be further remanded till September 22 by the Colombo Magistrate's Court.

Due to the absence of Colombo Chief Magistrate Asanga S. Bodaragama, who was on leave, the case was postponed until next Monday.

The order on the bail application filed on behalf of Rajapaksa-who was arrested by the Commission to Investigate Allegations of Bribery or Corruption over a bribery-related charge-is also expected to be delivered on the same date.
