They include Lyca owner Subhashkaran Allirajah, Raj Shankar and a white
man serving in the company. All of them are presently staying at
Cinnamon Grand Hotel in Colombo.
SLT’s bid to buy Hutchison for 150 million dollars, which is much more
than it is worth, has been on halt due to opposition, and Lyca is going
to make the purchase on behalf of SLT, the sources say.
Lyca’s business strategy is to lure top persons of any government coming
to power by way of supplying them with money, alcohol and women. The
UK’s governing Conservative Party too, had obtained funding from Lyca
and is now in trouble over it.

Our correspondent in Katunayake reported a short while ago that
Allirajah, Shankar and the white man had left from Bandaranaike
international airport.
They had made a hasty return after coming to know that the Scotland Yard
and the CID are investigating Lyca and its owners over money laundering
charges.
They had left before the CID moved to arrest them.
