Evidence before the Bond Commission revealed that former Finance Minister Ravi Karunanayake and his family spoke to Arjun Aloysius over 750 times in total during the period February 5, 2015 to June 20, 2017.

There were 84 calls between Aloysius and the former Minister between February 1, 2015 to March 31, 2016 the period of the controversial Bond Issuance, out of the total of 387 calls.

Aloysius had been in communication with the wife of the Minister 320 times and a total of 23 times with the daughters of the Minister Onella and Shenella Karunanayake.

The Minister earlier giving evidence denied any intimate knowledge of Arjun Aloysius and said he had met him "once or twice at family gatherings".

When messages were played out which referred to “Ravi K" and “Hon Ravi" and the coincidence of flights to Singapore with Aloysius the Minister denied any knowledge of reference or meeting Aloysius.

The revelations were made during evidence of Sub Inspector Yasanka Jayasinghe of the Technical aid Division of the Criminal Investigations Department. (Shehan Chamika Silva and Hafeel Farisz)

It is obvious that Ravi K was involved. Question is how the justice will be served?

malik Friday, 17 November 2017 01:15 PM

I was going to say should this crook be in Parliament, But all criminals are in Parliament, so he is in the correct place.

How many times has Alo talked with Anika!!!?

malik Friday, 17 November 2017 01:24 PM

Can't blame all these parliament criminals, Tese days with all the information available, Its the people who still elect them knowing everything. Then they sit and complain how miserable their lives are. Typical

L C A Friday, 17 November 2017 07:43 AM

No doubt, Ravi K is much more corrupted than Rajapaksa family.

SHAME Friday, 17 November 2017 10:53 AM

Well said. shame to be a MP.

Aruna Friday, 17 November 2017 12:20 PM

For the sake of your own happiness keep exclaiming Rajapakse, Rajapakse, Rajapakse....but he won't come and rescue from the trap you all befallen as with Yahapalu came into power!

B S Perera Friday, 17 November 2017 07:46 AM

This Ravi K should be treated for dementia and he should be removed from Parliament until he is cured

Just to check his family is doing fine ??

Donald Pleasance Friday, 17 November 2017 09:39 AM

THis Ravi fellow is a disgrace. Disgrace to the Party, to the School and to the Country.

Sujeewa Friday, 17 November 2017 06:38 PM

Don't isolate only "Poor Ravi". What about Dayasiri, Sujeewa Senasinghe, Harshana, Ajith Perera, Appuhamy, and the rest of the "so called clean Jaha Palana clan"?

The reason that AA talked for such a long period of time with RK's family is that the ministry of finance was based at RK's house. Why can't people understand this. This shows that RK had been a very dedicated FM who took not only work home but other things too.

Hautam Friday, 17 November 2017 09:44 AM

should remove from the parliamentarian post until finish related issues.

LAL PERERA Friday, 17 November 2017 09:47 AM

ANTON Friday, 17 November 2017 10:17 AM

ACTUALLY I WOULD LIKE TO HEAR THE CONVERSATION WITH ONELLA, RAVIS DAUGHTER........ 20 CALLS !!! ANY OTHER TYPE OF BOND ?

Asanka Friday, 17 November 2017 10:49 AM

Looks like he has had more calls with the wife than the husband :/. Opens up a whole new dimension to the case.

sachith Friday, 17 November 2017 12:09 PM

They must be checking their connections.. that's all.

Mason Friday, 17 November 2017 01:08 PM

These revelations places the UNP is equally corrupt or even more than the former regime. However, to salvage some semblance of respect, the least they could do for the present is remove Ravi Karunanayake as MP.

ceylon Friday, 17 November 2017 02:29 PM

so what.is talking prohibited. via DM Android App

Nalin Friday, 17 November 2017 03:08 PM

What a shameless fellow this Ravi K is. Instead of hiding from all public eye he has the cheek to dress up in one of his many suits and accuse all and sundry during Parliament sittings.

Gayan Friday, 17 November 2017 04:15 PM

These are the guys who wanted to catch the crooks. All their assets should be confiscated and they should be locked up for the rest of their lives( hard labour).

Jaliya Saturday, 18 November 2017 09:15 AM

"These are the guys who wanted to catch the crooks" ..... now do you understand the reason why the government is not catching those crooks ?

Paramanathan K Friday, 17 November 2017 04:17 PM

Ravi Karunanayake is notorious for fraudulent deals which the whole country knows except the Prime Minister. It is strange that Ravi is moving about freely without getting prosecuted. All because of high connections. This time too he had played the part to bring down the UNP government. It is pity that Prime Minister Ranil bet on a wrong horse. There is no sign of recovering the looted money from Ravi and PTL company.

TONY Friday, 17 November 2017 06:46 PM

UNP CANNOT WIN ELECTIONS WITH THIS ROGUE IN THE PARTY

Alex Friday, 17 November 2017 09:45 PM

Ravi K was named as the best finance minister.Maybe it was Allosius who bribed this magazine to publish this article.
