Basil Rajapaksa was finally spotted seated silently on his seat in Parliament today.

Basil was under severe criticism for being absent from Parliament while he was the Finance Minister and the country entered its worst ever economic crisis. He finally had to step down from his portfolio when the entire cabinet resigned on Sunday night.

In recent days rumors were also rife that Basil had left the country and gone back to the USA. (Jamila Husain)

Anyway may be this will be his final sitting in the parliament as he had already kept a plane to fly at Mattala Airport.

Who told you to enter the Parliament? You have no right to step in to the Parliament as you ruined our economy, get lost.

What right does he have to sit in parliament? He is not only a criminal but also an illegal member of the Parliament. He should be kicked out immediately. There is no where in the constitution that he can be a member of Parliament

He is parliament when he is not wanted anymore. Thank God that the Kaputa is no more and will ever be again.
