Sri Lanka Podujana Peramuna (SLPP) MP Namal Rajapaksa has arrived at the Criminal Investigations Department (CID) to provide a statement over investigations related to a SriLankan Airlines Airbus deal. Â
The CID’s investigation focuses on the alleged corruption surrounding the 2013 transaction to purchase 10 Airbus aircraft.
The deal has come under scrutiny after a UK Serious Fraud Office (SFO) investigation revealed that 16.84 million in bribes were paid as part of the agreement.
It was further uncovered that 2 million was deposited into a Brunei account linked to the wife of the CEO of SriLankan Airlines at the time, with additional funds transferred to other accounts. (Islandnews)Â
