Navy awaits outcome of court proceedings on Yoshitha

Aug 08, 2016

The Sri Lanka Navy is awaiting the outcome of ongoing court proceedings on Yoshitha Rajapaksa before taking further course of action in this regard.

Navy spokesman Captain Akram Alavi told The Sunday Leader that summary proceedings on Rajapaksa were suspended as a court case was underway.

He said that Rajapaksa is not receiving a salary from the Navy and that following his arrest by the Financial Crimes Investigations Division (FCID), the summary proceedings were suspended. Akram Alavi said Rajapaksa’s position in the Navy will be looked into once the court case based on the FCID investigations on Rajapaksa concludes.
