FCID has begun an inquiry regarding an incident in which Parliamentarian Namal Rajapaksa is said to have threatened a Sub-Inspector attached to the FCID.

The incident has happened yesterday when Mr Namal Rajapaksa accompanied his brother Yoshitha Rajapaksa to the FCID who arrived at the FCID to be questioned regarding a defender vehicle that is said to have been used in the murder of popular rugby player Wasim Thajudeen.

The police officer, who is said to have been threatened by Parliamentarian Namal Rajapaksa, is Sub-Inspector Shantha Lalith, who is an efficient officer in the FCID say police sources. The investigations being carried out against Parliamentarian Namal Rajapaksa in connection with the multi-million dollar Krrish deal are handled by Sub-Inspector Shantha Lalith.

The US$ 650 million Krrish Tower project which was initiated during former President Rajapaksa’s period has been marred with controversy with allegations of secret payoffs to several VIPs in the country at that time. Mr Namal Rajapaksa is accused of pocketing between Rs. 70 to 100 million from the deal.
