JVP revisits Bribery Commission


By Gagani Weerakoo-February 6, 2014
It is now a month since the Janatha Vimukthi Peramuna (JVP) filed a complaint with the Commission to Investigate Allegations of Bribery or Corruption (CIABOC), against its Chairman, Jagath Balapatabendi, but the commission has failed to conduct a semblance of a probe into the matter. This compelled the JVP to meet the Secretary to the Commission, this time against its lukewarm attitude towards the first petition, accusing the Bribery Commission of attempting to sweep the complaint against its Chairman under the carpet by needlessly delaying the investigation.
