UPFA MP Namal Rajapaksa was arrested by the Financial Crimes Investigations Division (FCID) a short while ago in connection with the purchase of Hello Corp shares for Rs.125 million, Police Media Division said.

Prior to his arrest, the FCID recorded a statement made by Mr. Rajapaksa.

He was also arrested by the FCID on July 11 in connection with the misappropriation of Rs.70 million paid to him by Krrish Company.

    Never release him on bail as money laundering is not a bailable offence.

    Why don't we build a five-star hotel for this family, house them in it and, for convenience, issue them day passes to come and go as they please? That should be a cheaper alternative than the status quo.

    aruna Monday, 15 August 2016 04:13 PM

    How can he get bail so many times? How come he has money to pay bail every-time he gets arrested?

    Joe rajaj Monday, 15 August 2016 04:26 PM

    Prasanna Monday, 15 August 2016 05:12 PM

    Mr.Namal is a National Hero, he should not be treated in this manner.

    L. Perera Monday, 15 August 2016 05:37 PM

    Nothing will happen. This what we have seen in the past. Duty free luxary vehicles for politicians. Politicians for politicians. Not for the country. What should we do ?

    suraj Monday, 15 August 2016 05:42 PM

    if it is happen to general public, Law and bail will be inside the welikada to end his life.

    saranapala Monday, 15 August 2016 06:02 PM

    You are right, this is a kind of musical chairs at high level.

    Albert Tuesday, 23 August 2016 09:52 AM

    They will not go to jail. Because they all know the day the Government changes the return would be 10 times worse

    CCR Tuesday, 23 August 2016 01:34 PM

    He's laughing all the way to prison, all the way to the bank, and the legal fraternity are also laughing all the way to the bank, while he goes free! Is this a good justice system??

    RR Monday, 15 August 2016 02:21 PM

    Law of the land applied same for for everyone, but not for those who in the power now, past or future.

    Said Mohammed Monday, 15 August 2016 01:46 PM

    Do not release him on bail this time. The appropriate time has come to give the appropriate punishment.

    Topaz Monday, 15 August 2016 01:46 PM

    Labby Monday, 15 August 2016 02:55 PM

    If in a couple of days this man is released on bail we need to seriously take a look at our Law Enforcements and also our Judicial System. Are they functioning the way they should ?

    Vimal Carlos Monday, 15 August 2016 02:56 PM

    You guys are not thinking any war strategy. "read the book Art of war" . The goverment wants to delay all the sentences so it will start just before next election. So the Rajapaksa team for sure will miss the elections.

    sobers Monday, 15 August 2016 02:58 PM

    As things are all politicians are taking the millions of innocent citizens on a ride. This country will end up as failed nation.

    Bala Monday, 15 August 2016 03:00 PM

    Hope he will not be given a mattress as his spine is perfect the way he danced at the pada yatra.

    Mandy Monday, 15 August 2016 03:04 PM

    These are small amounts for the Rajapakses.When are you catching his father for billions overseas.

    BuffaloaCitizen Monday, 15 August 2016 03:13 PM

    These are financial crimes, thus bail-able offence. Sri Lanka also does not have experienced qualified financial crime investigators in the Police or AG's office, thus the reason for long periods in closing cases.
