The parliamentarian said he had given statement to the FCID as he was a director of the Mahinda Rajapaksa Foundation where the constructions of the sports complex was carried out.
He said President Sirisena had sent a letter to the FCID to commence an investigation into the construction of the sport complex alleging there was financial irregularities.
