Colombo Additional Magistrate Augusta Atapattu today ordered the Nugegoda Land Registrar to stop the sale or the transfer of ownership of a property in Ratmalana purchased in the name of Yoshitha Rajapaksa's grandmother Daysi Forest.

The FCID today filed a motion requesting a court order to stop the possible sale or transfer of the property 31.5 perches in extent located at No: 64 Sirimal Uyana, Kekatiya, Ratmalana in connection with a Money Laundering case.

The FCID revealed the alleged purchase of the property during the inquiry conducted (B 9823/15) against Carlton Sports Network Pvt at Kaduwela Magistrate’s Court over alleged illegal acquisition of properties from ill gotten funds.

Later, the FCID filing a B report at the Mount Lavinia Magistrate’s Court (B 828/16) informed court over the alleged property purchase.

The FCID says CSN Chairman Yoshitha Rajapaksa’s grandmother had failed to show how she acquired such money to purchase the property for Rs. 24 million.

The FCID also sought court permission to peruse bank details of the previous owners, Manel Ratnayake and Lushan Ratnayake of the alleged property during the period of October 1 – 30, 2012.

Acceding to the request, the Magistrate allowed the FCID to continue with the investigations over the property. (Shehan Chamika Silva)
