Law enforcement authorities are inquiring into a leading businessman, who used to regularly present ex-president Mahinda Rajapakse with bottles of his favourite wine.

The wine he has given Rajapaksa is made Italy and is priced at 100 Euro a bottle.

The businessman in question was linked to several projects, including a wind energy generation project, during the previous regime.

A company owned by him has had cheques for more than Rs. 50 million cashed by A.M.B. Abeysinghe, an administrative officer in Rajapaksa’s staff.

Abeysinghe is reportedly missing after being accused of fraud in cashing cheques for Rs. 218 millon.
