Aloysius Gets Duminda Syndrome, Mahendran Had Threatened EPF Superintendent
Arjun Aloysius‘ lawyer today informed the Commission investigating the Bond Scam, that Aloysius had forgotten his
apple I phone and lap top passwords. The Attorney Generals department
reacted by saying that Aloysius is lying as he had used his password
recently to update the system and download applications.
A new counsel representing Aloysius, Anuja Premarathne PC sought the
commissions permission to take the SIM card in order to get another sim
with the same number. However, the Attorney Generals department led by
Deputy Solicitor General Yasantha Kodagoda objected. Kodagoda said that
they could release all the devices within Two days if Aloysius
coorperated and gave the passwords. He further said that if Aloysius
doesn’t corporate they would use whatever means to crack the passwords
and get to the device.
Earlier Aloysius told the commission that the most crucial device, the
phone he used during the bondscam had been destroyed in Singapore.
Giving evidence at the commission today former EPF Chief Ananda Jayalath said that Arjun Mahendran insisted that Saman Kumara be put in the dealing room instead of the risk management unit.
Saman Kumara thereafter bought bonds from Perpetual Treasuries in
the secondary market. He was called before the commission and it was
revealed that Kumara had a massive asset base and was involved in many
shady deals involving the EPF. Kumara was considered to be Mahendran’s
closest associate.
Jayalath said that he was informed of the questionable nature of
Kumara’s character and refused to put him to the front office. The day
after Kumara was transferred to the EPF, Mahendran had called and
threatened Jayalath. Mahendran had insisted that Kumara be put in charge
of the dealing room. Kumara thereafter had a free hand with buying
shares.
Jayalath giving testimony further said that it was clear that Mahendran
knew of every purchase made by Kumara. Citing examples of how the buying
was done and how Mahendran was made aware, Jayalath said that Mahendran
and Kumara seemed to work hand in hand.
