Deputy Minister Ranjan Ramanayake yesterday said he would make a disclosure with regard to the Perpetual Treasuries Chief Arjun Aloysius soon.

Mr Ramanayake also said that he would disclose the names of politicians, religious leaders and media personnel, who had obtained funds from the Perpetual Treasuries Chief Arjun Aloysius in a few days.

The Deputy Minister said there were MPs who had obtained money from Aloysius from both the Government and the Opposition.

“There are also women MPs, who had got money from Mendis Distilleries and, Buddhist and Christian religious leaders. I will reveal their names as well,” he said while highlighting that more than 157 cheque counter slips had been recovered.

He said those who want the Prime Minister Ranil Wickremesinghe to bring former Governor of Central Bank Arjun Mahendran when he returned from his Singapore tour, should send Former President Mahinda Rajapaksa to bring his brother-in-law Udayanga Weeratunga from wherever he stayed.

“Both Mr Wickremesinghe and Rajapaksa would be rated as good leaders if they help find the two, who are wanted,” he added. (Yohan Perera)

    Good if you make these disclosures but be careful somebody might try to bump you off.

    Scooby Doo Friday, 02 March 2018 09:01 AM

    And its better not to reveal the plans.

    Sean Friday, 02 March 2018 02:19 PM

    Be careful, you too might get a cheque if you try to put the cat out of the cap.

    Jaffna Observer Friday, 02 March 2018 02:37 AM

    We all know South has always been filled with hardened hired criminals, So I would advice this Minister to take extra security cover as some might want to silence him before he reveals all the crooked politicians.

    Gamaya Friday, 02 March 2018 03:24 AM

    Forget the jargon and bring Manendran back at least to look after his son in law Aloysius in Jail.

    lion Friday, 02 March 2018 03:51 AM

    no point of dilly deling just reveal the names, history of this country will definitely remember you with gratitude for exposing the true nature of those who receive cheques from Alosiyus.

    Rohan Friday, 02 March 2018 04:37 AM

    As always good job Ranjan.

    dulan Friday, 02 March 2018 08:21 AM

    Why just talk why not reveal? we have such stories before with no end result

    ubayaratne Saturday, 03 March 2018 11:31 AM

    true to the fact

    ubayaratne Saturday, 03 March 2018 11:36 AM

    please publish all details in the SOCIAL MEDIA so that it will reach even the poor farmers these days news papers are very scared when it comes to the truth. Social media is faster than anything.

    Jaliya Friday, 02 March 2018 08:28 AM

    Don't get your hopes high up. This was the second statement of the same ..... he tends to reiterate the public repeatedly Ï will disclose the names of corrupted who received money" but its always is I will reveal "SOON" when it's dirty politics the public cannot depend on anyone they're all the same.

    Ajja Friday, 02 March 2018 08:30 AM

    Make a Recording soon as the culprits can bump you off...

    ubayaratne Saturday, 03 March 2018 11:29 AM

    or else people will bump you off with the vote not with the bullet, the former is more powerful

    Eds Friday, 02 March 2018 09:19 AM

    Looks like he's starting his Gen Election campaign early

    Sincere Friday, 02 March 2018 09:24 AM

    Both of them will never do that as they both are in the same boat. So it is up to anyone to guess who is the best leader.

    Gune Friday, 02 March 2018 09:44 AM

    At least there is one good man who is willing to take this fight head-on!

    Fedi Friday, 02 March 2018 09:48 AM

    Good move but why not now but soon ? Cant you just do it or not tell us in advance treating us like a spectator's of a thriller film ?

    BV Friday, 02 March 2018 05:11 PM

    Wait till parliament meets he will make his move under parliament privileges.Exposing to media is too dangerous as it will lead to legal battles.

    Banda Friday, 02 March 2018 10:31 AM

    Ranjan should know that, all in all, MIG deal cost just 1.1 billion rupees or 10 million US dollars in 2006. We got the fighter planes for that money and we know that MIGs help win the war. Surely, it must be a small cut from the total sum that Udayanga is alleged to have taken.As for the alleged fraudsters of two bond scams, their company Perpetual Trading is said to to have made a profit of Rs. 5.1 billion for the year ending March 2016, a staggering increase of 430% to the previous year. Now can Ranjan imagine the loss for the country in the long run. Dy Minister Finance says the long term loss exceeds one trillion. Now who should bring who eh?

    alex Friday, 02 March 2018 11:40 AM

    according to Banda's logic, the next time some one swindles a sum larger than the bond scam you can say that is ok since the new scam is bigger than the bond scam

    Sincere Friday, 02 March 2018 10:42 AM

    Ranjan, Do not limit this to words, but prove it by action. We are awaiting to know the truth.

    ubayaratne Saturday, 03 March 2018 11:27 AM

    of course

    Jude Friday, 02 March 2018 10:54 AM

    Hey RR you're a Belligerent Crusader!!! Continue your mission!! We envy your courage!!!

    joseph Friday, 02 March 2018 11:38 AM

    Everybody is talking about the bond scam amounting to Rs.12Bn But nobody is talking about the Rs.12Bn public money Entrust played out, because it has no political value , though the Directors are connected to the former regime. If not for the then CB governor it would have been more.

    Kamal Rupasinghe Friday, 02 March 2018 11:38 AM

    Ranjan, even Mahinda and Namal had got money from Arjun Aloysius, hope you have proved documents.

    Ganashen Anandarajah - Kotagalla Friday, 02 March 2018 11:44 AM

    Digambaram also had received money from AA, for his illegal drug business what is openly done in Kottagalla, Hatton and Talawakelle. (This is a true news)

    Mudson Silva Friday, 02 March 2018 11:49 AM

    Anyway Ranja you have to face Prison time for contempt of court. Sillysena is trying to protect you. Remember SB had to face jail time at welikada. So try and pack your bags to Magazine without uttering false.

    BuffaloaCitizen Friday, 02 March 2018 01:27 PM

    Don't worry about contempt of court, the court itself is a contempt to this country.

    justin Friday, 02 March 2018 02:02 PM

    Every politician in south asian countries rob country moneyby very tricky ways as creating ethnic problems , religion problems , cast problems or criticizing position parities. finally all leaders are same and rein the people creating trickily above mentioned problems.

    Sisira Adihetti Friday, 02 March 2018 02:15 PM

    Mr. Ramanayake, if you have something to say, go ahead and do it without the usual political bullshit of, "I'll reveal soon !" and "I'll reveal at the right time !" Now is the right time.If you can't do this please keep your tap shut,.

    Lokya Friday, 02 March 2018 02:18 PM

    Who is the father in Law put is son lin law in troubleand slip away.

    Daisy Friday, 02 March 2018 02:21 PM

    So why not say it now Ranjan?? What's the delay? Holding out for a bribe. All fizz no pop

    Martin Milton Friday, 02 March 2018 02:50 PM

    Cannot agree with you more. However aside from this important issue I do hope you go and obtain some 'anger management' Psychotherapy from a good Psychologist! MM

    Suresh Friday, 02 March 2018 03:45 PM

    Nothing will happen only talks , RW must resign

    Dihan Friday, 02 March 2018 05:32 PM

    I have no faith in UNP - but seems this man isn’t an honest politician

    Kom Friday, 02 March 2018 06:34 PM

    Ranjan Sir, Daisy Aachi and Lalith Weeratunge leaving abroad. By the time SF take over Law and Order no one will be left in island to investigate.

    Alex Friday, 02 March 2018 09:18 PM

    Ranjan Sir,have you forgotten that big crook,MR's cousin or nephew Jaaliya Wicremasooriya.
