Passive resistance demanding the arrest of ex Health Minister (PHOTOS)

Date:

January 31, Colombo (LNW): A passive resistance was held in front of the Criminal Investigation Department (CID) this (31) afternoon demanding the arrest of former Health Minister Keheliya Rambukwella.

The resistance was organised by the Citizen Power Against Bribery, Corruption and Waste movement, together with the Union of Environmental, Civic and Peoples’ Organisations.

Despite the existence of evidence corroborating the involvement of Rambukwella in the questionable immunoglobulin import endangering people’s lives, the ex Minister is protected on certain parties’ wishes, the demonstrators pointed out.

Meanwhile, Rambukwella is expected to arrive in the CID to be questioned about the questionable immunoglobulin deal.
