March 27, Colombo (LNW): The Attorney General’s Department has announced its intent to present the facts to court on Wednesday (27) regarding former President Maithripala Sirisena’s recent statement to the Criminal Investigation Department (CID) concerning the Easter attacks.

In addition to reporting the facts, the AG’s Department disclosed plans to petition the court to summon Maithripala Sirisena, urging him to provide a statement in the legal proceedings.
