SCHOOL VAN DRIVER WITH ONE HAND

School van driver with one hand bailed out for s surety bail of Rs one lakh when produced in Courts:
After the unfortunate school van accident at Dehiwala , the Police had laid a lot of emphasis and attention as to the discipline,and the manner the drivers of school vans drive on the roads.
The police had been able to nab a driver of a school van along Flower Road as he had been driving with just one had. When questioned he had confessed that he had been driving school vans for the past 19 years. He had possessed a driving licence before he had gone for employment in Saudi Arabia. 
There his hand had got entangled inside a machine and his hand from the wrist had been amputated. After returning back to Sri Lanka he had commenced his school van business which became his lively hood. He had confessed that he had never met with a single accident and had even driven to places like Nuwara Eliya and Kataragama. The parents of the children over the years have had complete confidence in his driving although he was driving with one hand. The other pathetic story is that his son had lost a leg after an accident and he has to feed him also.
When produced to courts the Magistrate had asked to confiscate his driving licence and on a appeal for bail was granted with a surety bail amounting to Rs 1 lakh.
