Malsha Kumaratunga, daughter of former politician Jeewan Kumaratunga today denied reports circulating on social media that she had been arrested by a team from the Police Narcotics Bureau for being in possession of 2 kilos of drugs.

When contacted by Daily Mirror, Kumaratunga said the reports were false and she was in fact at her house with her mother.

According to the reports that circulated on social media, it claimed that Malsha was stopped by police in the Boralesgamuwa area last night when she was travelling in a car and police had found 2 kilos of 'Kush' drugs.

The reports claimed that she had then immediately called Tourism Minister Harin Fernando who arrived at the scene moments later and threatened the police.

When contacted, officials from the Police Narcotics Bureau told Daily Mirror that they were not aware of such an incident over Malsha's arrest. (DSB)

There cannot be smoke without fire. Police who stopped her will soon spill the beans. Corrupt Politicians are a menace and Harin too appear to be jumping the band wagon

Must be Harin Fernando's cocaine stock.

May not have been arrested. But her father Jeevan should be arrested for failing to preserve the Solar Children Park at Wellawatte beach, opened by him a few years back. It has changed hands a couple of times to be used as a restaurant, depriving the children of their play area.

Look like what the Field Marshal said was true!

It's a well know fact that her father has been one of the biggest drug dealers in Sri Lanka for a number of decades now.

Looks like a coverup story. Let’s wait for the real one before we make judgement.
