The Kaduwela Magistrate Court today (28) has dropped charges against Finance Minister on another case involving the misappropriation of public funds.
The case was filed by the Police Financial Crimes Division during the previous Good Governance regime alleging misappropriation of Samurdhi officers’ bonuses and was dropped as the Attorney General’s Department had informed that it could not be continued.
Accordingly, all charges against Rajapaksa have been dropped, ordered Kaduwela Magistrate Manjula Ratnayake.
