Sri Lanka Customs has agreed to release a consignment of BYD electric vehicles that had been under detention, following an agreement reached in court today (November 11).
The decision came during the hearing of a petition filed by the importing company before the Court of Appeal. Additional Solicitor General Sumathi Dharmawardena, appearing for Sri Lanka Customs, informed the court that the institution had agreed to release 625 vehicles under several models — including BYD ATTO Premium (70 kW), ATTO Dynamic (45 kW), ATTO Premium (45 kW), and Dolphin Dynamic (70 kW) — upon submission of bank and company guarantees.
The proposal made by Customs received the consent of President’s Counsel Farsana Jamil, representing the petitioner.
