October 24, Colombo (LNW): Former MP Namal Rajapaksa appeared at the Criminal Investigation Department (CID) this morning at approximately 9.00 a.m., following a summons.
Speaking briefly to journalists upon his arrival, Rajapaksa expressed uncertainty about the exact reason for his summons, stating that he would learn the details once inside.
When pressed for more information, Rajapaksa remarked, “I am not aware of the specific matter. It’s better to be called in and clarify. The only way to clear the accusations against us is to come forward and provide statements. Some people spread lies with confidence, but we don’t. We will present our side of the story with conviction.“
Whilst it remains unclear what specific allegations are being probed, Rajapaksa’s statement reflects his intention to address any accusations directly.
