He confirmed that the petrol issued by the Corporation was in keeping with the accepted quality standards and that the contamination had occurred at the filling station.
Police said investigations were being carried out by the Peradeniya Branch of the Ceylon Petroleum Corporation. The CPC said the cost of repairing the vehicles would have to be borne by the filling station.
