Gunathilaka is facing four counts of sexual intercourse without consent and has not yet given a plea. The case will return to court on January 12.

"Magistrate Janet Wahlquist granted Gunathilaka bail on Thursday in Sydney's Downing Centre Local Court, where he appeared via an audiovisual link from Parklea jail. Police prosecutor Kerry-Ann McKinnon opposed bail on the grounds Gunathilaka is a flight risk and that he could endanger the safety of the complainant, who cannot be identified for legal reasons."

Thangaraj was quoted as saying by ESPNcricinfo

"Of course he would be on bail in these circumstances," Thangaraj added.

"The complainant tried to remove the accused's hand by grabbing his wrist but the accused squeezed tighter around her neck. The complainant was fearing for her life and could not get away from the accused," A police facts sheet filed with the court was quoted as saying by ESPNcricinfo
