Pushpa’s foundation under probe

The Colombo Fort Magistrate has ordered managers of two state banks and a private bank that the bank account details of the foundation of former Minister Basil Rajapaksa's wife Pushpa Rajapaksa be handed over to the Police Financial Crimes Investigation Division (FCID) to assist a probe carried out by the unit.

The Police FCID has commenced investigations on the alleged deposit of US$ 150,000 in an account of an NGO named Pushpa Rajapaksa Foundation by providing false information.

The police have filed a report on the investigation before Colombo Fort Magistrate Thilina Gamage and the Magistrate has accordingly permitted the police to obtain bank account details over the alleged deposit belonging to the Pushpa Rajapaksa Foundation.

The monies are reportedly belonged to the Sri Lanka Ports Authority.
