Sept 07, Anuradhapura: Anuradhapura Chief Magistrate and additional District Judge Darshika Wimalasiri today cancelled a previous bail out and remanded the chief incumbent of Mihintale Rajamaha Vihara Namalweve Rathanasara Thero until September 14.
The senior Buddhist monk is accused of repeatedly molesting an underage girl for one and half years.
The mother who is accused of selling the daughter is also under arrest.
The monk was arrested by the CID at the airport on August 20 upon his return from a foreign country.
The Chief Magistrate refused granting bail on any condition to the monk despite the request from his lawyers.
She enquired from the Criminal Investigation Department why they had not protested granting bail to the accused in the previous occasion.
