AG to file indictments on seven reports

The Attorney General(AG) will file indictments relating to seven reports concerning alleged acts of Fraud Corruption, Abuse of Power State Resources and Privileges running into millions of rupees committed during the Rajapaksa regime.

The seven reports compiled by the Presidential Commission Investigating alleged acts of Fraud Corruption Abuse of Power State Resources and Privileges relating to misuse of State funds and Assets running into millions of rupees during the Rajapaksa regime have been handed over to the Attorney General Jayantha Jayasuriya PC by President Maithripala Sirisena last week for necessary legal action.

The Attorney General said indictments will be filed against the accused after completing a legal study on the seven reports. He said this study had already commenced into the seven reports handed over by the President.

Since the PRECIFAC had investigated and recorded evidence on the seven reports indictments would be made on the basis of this evidence.

The seven reports handed over by the President to the Attorney Generals Department related to investigations made into SriLankan Airlines, Sri Lankan Catering Services, Fishery Harbours Corporation coming under the purview of the Fisheries Ministry, Hambantota Port Water Filling Ceremony, Sri Lanka Transport Board, Upcountry Development Authority, Consumer Services Authority and investigations relating former North Central Provincial Council Chief Minister S M Ranjith Samarakoon.

PRECIFAC chaired by Appeal Court Judge Preethi Padma Surasena and comprising High Court Judges Vikum Kaluarachchi, Piyasena Ranasinghe and Gihan Kulatunge and former Auditor General P.Pematilleke had submitted the seven reports to President Sirisena after conducting investigations and recording evidence.

On behalf of the Attorney General Senior Attorney Janaka Bandara, Attorney Sudarshana de Silva and former Attorney Chaminda Athukorale assisted the commission.

Just more talk imho - nothing is going to happen. These people are protected at the highest level.

And it's Billions of Rupees not millions as stated in the article.

4R-ABK was doing a test flight as UL2 in CMB on the 26-Aug. It was flying for 02:09hrs from CMB to CMB. Is it pre-delivery test flight before being ferried to India for Indigo Airlines?

I met my batch mate yesterday who is currently working as engineer for Sri Lankan airline. As per him, indigo deal is now cancelled. The plane has few structural issues which need to be rectified. After 4R ABK was sorted out, MRC and MRD will leave the fleet. Also as per him 4R AND has some engine issues. That is why receiving it getting delayed.

I have written on this at some length - I see nothing that indicates my analysis of the situation is wrong.

Exactly the same I once mentioned, about MRC and MRD leaving the fleet soon. And yes, again the same thing I was to say about 4R-AND's engine problems. By the way, could you check your private inbox, please, Mr.Janson?

Thanks.

MRC already been delivered to new customer and its not part of the UL anymore.
Do you mean MRD & MRE will leave the UL fleet after issue on ABK sorted out? Any more detail about structural issue on ABK. Is it something UL have damaged the aircraft?

I sent you a reply yesterday.
