Minister Navin growls at FCID officers

FRIDAY, 25 SEPTEMBER 2015

Edward Rienzi has recently bought more than 30 businesses in Sri Lanka. He is a powerful agent of Rajapaksa project that converts black money into white. It is reported that FCID has launched investigations into this person’s moves.

Officers of FCID took statements from the person on the 23rd and had asked him to come to the FCID today (25th) for further investigation.

However, he failed to appear at the FCID for the statement and later it was found out that he had been admitted to a private hospital for treatment.

A group of police officers including a Superintendent of Police had visited him at the hospital to hand over the notice for another date for him to appear at FCID.

Minister Navin Dissanayaka, who is a close associate of Edward Rienzi and who had been present has reprimanded the police officers, threatened them and had chased them away.

DIG of the FCID Ravi Vidyalankra has taken measures to report the incident to the President and the Prime Minister.
