If not already done, amend the laws to confiscate all their assets?

So during this period he earned Rs. 12m per month. Even a mafia boss cannot earn this level of money.

Great move, unable to show income, liquidise and send it to the public treasury.

It's shocking to hear these things, these goons have earned so much money illegally. They must be held fully accountable and face appropriate legal consequences.

This is 270 million from a not so prominent minister’s son. Just multiply this by the several past minister from the SLPP. PA, SLFP and UNP it will run into a staggering billions which could have settled 50% of our debt. Yet all of them claim innocence.
