Sources say that the bank accounts of Dhanuna Tillekeratne, the son-in-law of former Army Commander Field Marshal Sarath Fonseka, who was later acquitted of allegations that he had submitted forged documents to obtain tenders to supply goods to the Army, have been reactivated, sources said.
The allegations were made after Sarath Fonseka contested the Presidential election in 2010 and seven bank accounts belonging to Dhanuna Tilakaratne were frozen following a lawsuit filed in this regard.
Dhanuna Tilakaratne was acquitted of these charges in 2015 but the ban on the relevant bank accounts had not been lifted.
However, sources said that the bank accounts have been reactivated with the intervention of a strongman of the present government.
