The suspect identified as Diyagama Mudiyanselage Roopa Sagara was arrested by the CID yesterday for maintaining the account without the consent of the minister and not relinquishing his position as administrator after he was removed from his position.
The arrest was made on a complaint lodged by the Secretary to the Finance Ministry.
The suspect was appointed to the post of administrator of the official Facebook account for Minister Karunanayake in September 2015 and was sacked three months later for posting content without approval. (Shehan Chamika Silva)
