In addition charges of fraud and bribery will also be filed against several sports officials who served as secretary of Sri Lanka Cricket.

One of the main charges of bribery to be filed against Ranatunga is that while serving as Interim Committee secretary of Sri Lanka Cricket he procured the broadcast rights of matches involving the Sri Lanka team for the television channel CSN where he served as its CEO through irregular means.

Although Ranatunga has left the service of Mihin Air he is said to be collecting a monthly salary while being on the company's payroll as its CEO.

It has been reported that Ranatunga had also made an attempt to seek the intervention of new Civil Aviation Minister Faiser Mushtapha to remain in the post of CEO at Mihin Air.

Currently the government is looking into prospects of amalgamating Mihin Air with Srilankan Airlines.
