The Kaduwela Magistrate today approved the transfer of Rs. 157.5 million from a bank account of a private company to the Central Bank of Sri Lanka (CBSL).

While investigating the Carlton Sports Network, the FCID also investigated the source of Rs.157. 5 million deposited in the name of a private company in a private bank.

The company in question stated the money did not belong to them and was willing to transfer it to the Treasury.

Accordingly, the FCID filed a motion and obtained approval from the Kaduwela Magistrate Dhammika Hemapala, to transfer the money to the Treasury. (Irangi Edirisinghe)

Transfer the money to the Treasury and close the case? How ridiculously stupid are we? If the money did not belong to that company why were they keeping it with them? That alone amounts to theft. Interesting to see what the FCID is going to do about this.
