Balangoda Kassapa Thera and three other Buddhist monks, along with four civilians arrested near the Ruwanweli Maha Seya in Anuradhapura, have been remanded until November 26.
The remand order was issued after the Magistrate visited the hospital last night and inspected the situation.
The eight individuals had been taken into police custody following a tense situation that erupted yesterday morning at the dansal premises near the Ruwanweli Maha Seya, where Balangoda Kassapa Thera and three other monks were staging a hunger strike unto death.
