Danushka Gunathilaka, a cricketer for Sri Lankan, was released on bail on Thursday, but he is not allowed to use his social media accounts while he waits for his trial on charges of alleged sexual assault of a woman while the team was competing in the Twenty20 World Cup in Australia. The alleged incident occurred while the team was competing in Australia.

According to a story that was published on ESPNcricinfo, the batter who has since been suspended appeared before a court in Sydney’s Downing Centre court via video link from Parklea Correctional Centre, where he had been detained ever since his bail request on November 7 was denied.

Even though the team had already left the country after being eliminated from the Super 12 stage, the 31-year-old Gunathilaka was arrested in Sydney in the early hours of November 6 as a result of an investigation into an alleged sexual assault of a woman on November 2. This took place even as the team was flying out of the country.

According to the newspaper, “Magistrate Janet Wahlquist granted Gunathilaka bail on Thursday in Sydney’s Downing Centre Local Court.” Gunathilaka appeared in court via an audiovisual link from Parklea jail.

“Kerry-Ann McKinnon, the prosecutor for the police department, argued against granting bail to Gunathilaka on the grounds that he is a flight risk and that he could put the complainant’s safety in jeopardy. The complainant cannot be named for legal reasons.

“Gunathilaka is being charged with four counts of engaging in sexual activity without the agreement of the other party, although he has not yet entered a plea.

The bail conditions include a surety in the amount of AUD 150,000 (USD 100,620), the surrender of the individual’s passport, twice daily police reporting, a curfew from 9 pm to 6 am, and a prohibition on communicating with the individual who filed the complaint. In addition, the individual is prohibited from using dating applications such as Tinder and social media platforms.
