Sri Lanka: Prime Minister is on the knife edge
(August 8, 2017, Colombo, Sri Lanka Guardian) According
to information that has been revealed Prime Minister Ranil
Wickremesinghe too would have to be summoned to the Presidential
Commission of Inquiry into the Bond Issuance when data in the mobile
phone of the Director of Perpetual Treasuries Arjun Aloysius, who is
charged with illegal bond dealings in Central Bank, is investigated say
reports.
According to relevant telephone records, there are several short
messages that mention ‘Hon PM’, ‘Get a copy from PM’ and it is discussed
that ‘PM’ refers to Prime Minister Ranil Wickremesinghe. 8000 pages of
records have been investigated by the relevant authorities.
Also, Central Bank of Sri Lanka was under Mr. Ranil Wickremesinghe when
the bond scam was committed and Arjun Mahendran, father-in-law of Arjun
Aloysius was appointed the Governor of Central Bank by Mr.
Wickremesinghe when cabinet opposed it.
However, the Commission has not decided whether to summon the PM to the
Commission or not. If the Commission decides to do so, there would
definitely be a political turmoil within the UNP and the government.
