A second bond investigation commission should be appointed to investigate the loss incurred between 1st April 2016 to December 2017 by the country in relation to the Central bank bond frauds states the convener of Voice Against Corruption (VAC) Wasantha Samarasinghe.
He further said the President of the country himself has said the bond frauds have been continuously committed from 2008 to 2016. In appointing a second bond commission attention should be drawn to this matter as well.
Also, a large number of persons who have been named as offenders by the bond commission have been presented with ministerial portfolios when the cabinet was amended last.
The President, instead of revealing the hidden portions of the commission report or reject giving ministerial portfolios for those found guilty by the Commission, did not even oppose giving them portfolios pointed out Mr Samarasinghe. It is because the ministerial portfolios in the government formed conspiratorially by President Maithripala Sirisena and Mr Mahinda Rajapaksa were given to those individuals who had been named as large scale fraudsters by the bond commission appointed by President Sirisena himself.
