    Is he Dr. Hiran Hettiarachchi of Blue Mountain as he is also not to be found? Can any body give any information about him to Mr. Kumarasinghe of the ETF section of the Labour Department on 011-7747269 and 011-7747270.

    It's ironic that we are launching an investigation into the whereabouts of a fellow who has defrauded Rs.19million and want to bring him to justice while the Rajapakses are "hiding" in plain sight having stolen and defrauded the Sri Lankan people of Billions of Rupees and caused nationwide suffering and global embarrassment reducing us to a "begging" nation. Why are they not being brought to justice and why are they still allowed to live free and in complete luxury?
