Jane alias Geena Madam has threatened several government ministers that she would go before court and reveal the names of the ministers and government officials who have enjoyed the services of the high class brothel maintained by her. Geena had made this threat through her son Dinesh, who operates the Cleopatra karaoke pub at Liberty Plaza.
The Walana police raided the high class brothel that was operating on the seventh and eighth floors of Liberty Plaza for the past 20 years after getting a warrant from the Fort Magistrate following a directive by the Defence Secretary. However, Geena had managed to escape the police raid by getting out of the building through a secret elevator. Sources from Temple Trees say that apart from ministers and MPs, even high ranking officials at the Presidential Secretariat were worried after hearing Geena's threat. Geena is currently in hiding.
After learning that there would not be any mercy shown by the Defence Secretary, two new ministers and high ranking officials at the Presidential Secretariat had met with Namal Rajapaksa and had asked him to intervene to resolve the matter without letting it go any further.
Meanwhile, the President's personal physician, Dr. Ajith Ranawaka, who was providing the necessary political patronage to the brothel, has already assigned the services of attorney R.A.C. Ranawaka to safeguard Geena's rights.
When the case was taken up on the 6th, the defence counsel had told court that the raid carried out by the police was more like a forcible entry into a place where damage has been caused to private property.
Colombo Fort Magistrate Lanka Jayaratne after listening to submissions from both parties had ordered the young girls who were taken into custody from the brothel be remanded till the 17th and to immediately arrest and present to court the millionaire businesswoman who was operating the high class brothel.
