Parliamentarian Namal Rajapaksa has challenged the opposition to file a case against him or his family members if they have illicit amassed wealth in any country in the world.
He said that during the period 2015-2019, the then government even tried to imprison and prosecute him and his family, but all those allegations were false and he was acquitted by the court itself.
Rajapaksa said it was unfair for him to be repeatedly accused of false allegations in parliament and instead of insulting him, he asked to find out if they have amassed wealth in any country in the world under the guise of parliamentary privileges. He added that he is prepared to face prosecution if they can prove those.
He also said that the recent Bitcoin allegation against him was as false as the previous allegations.
Namal Rajapaksa stated this addressing the Parliament yesterday (21) in a special statement.
