Culprit holding arm in arm with former IGP Mahinda Balasooriya commits Multi million rupee credit card scam


Culprit holding arm in arm with former IGP Mahinda Balasooriya commits Multi million rupee credit card scam

Saturday 28 of January 2012
(Lanka-e-News-28.Jan.2012,7.30PM) After an individual was taken into custody some time ago based on his links to a multi million credit card scam , it has come to light that he is closely associated with the police hierarchy . Consequently, desperate attempts are now being made to cover up this whole scenario of mass scale swindling.

Following the discovery by the investigating officers of a photograph depicting this criminal of criminals with Dr. Mahinda Balasooriya former IGP and present Ambassador to Brazil arm in arm , the police is trying to suppress this investigation.

By now it has become very clear that the former IGP Dr. Balasooriya is less a honorary Dr. and much more a dishonorable ‘criminal Dr.’ . Going by the doctorates conferred on politicos like Mervyn the vermin and lately Balasooriya , it is being widely questioned among the intellectual circles whether to obtain a doctorate, the aspirant in SL must prove he is more dishonorable and less honorable ? It is reported that the individuals who went to secure a ‘doctorate’ for him for money were of the same infamous group which led Ven. Soma Thero on the journey to confer a ‘doctorate’ on the latter . This ‘criminal Dr.’ had spent Rs. 18 lakhs to ‘buy’ this doctorate , and the worst part of it is , the disbursement towards this has been made by even a more notorious criminal ‘kudu Duminda’, reports say. Of course , there is nothing to prohibit an IGP from putting the arms round a criminal , but the most perplexing and vexatious issue is, why is this ‘criminal Dr.’ not interrogated despite glaring evidence of close links between this ‘criminal Dr’. and the criminal of criminals who has cheated in billions.


Moreover , a group of the CID police officers who are involved in this massive fraud has also surfaced. One sergeant who had been implicated directly has been taken into custody while an OIC of the CID had been interdicted. Four more CID police officers are being questioned after detention orders having been obtained on them. The Sergeant who had teamed up with this credit card fraudster had built a palatial mansion out of these illegal earnings.
This crooked sergeant had been recruited into service by former Director Vaidyalanakara. Latter is a bosom pal of Gotabaya , and by appointing a subordinate of his as Airport chief he had amassed inordinate wealth – the Director’s history reveals.

Meanwhile the CID is plunged in a grave internal confusion and chaos .So far 19 of its officers have been transferred immediately out to ordinary police divisions.

There are about 800 very affluent Sri Lankans implicated in this colossal credit card racket.
What is most noteworthy is this culprit who perpetrated this credit card scam has done this for the second time . When he was caught on the first occasion , he had paid out of the monies fraudulently collected and freed himself. A three year bound over sentence was delivered on him. He had utilized his knowledge gained when he was abroad to print forged credit cards using the secret numbers of the original card holders to commit this massive fraud. Of course he has fully exploited the present SL climate of ‘those at the top are the worst crooks’ to the full . He has therefore streamlined his racket with the IGP and the CID officers who as law enforcers of this regime have instead of enforcing the law had colluded with the hard core racketeer to transgress the law most flagrantly holding hand in hand and arm in arm.

The officers of the CID themselves are of the opinion that a satisfactory investigation cannot be anticipated in the circumstances. Their main doubt is based on the non interrogation of the former IGP who is truly the central link in this gigantic credit card scam. It is also their view that owing to Gotabaya appointing henchmen and hangers on of his to the police force , the entire prestige and integrity , if any ,the Force had been totally destroyed most disgracefully.
