Those who recovered the said amount of money from the President’s House handed them over to the Fort Police Station. The amount was said to be Rs. 17.8 million in cash.
The order was issued by Colombo Fort Magistrate Thilina Gamage yesterday (11), and it was also ordered to conduct a probe into the matter.
