Ajith Nivard Cabraal, former Central Bank Governor who resigned from his post earlier this week, said he will not leave Sri Lanka and will instead answer all allegations leveled at him by various parties. 

Following rumors that Cabraal had left the country soon after he resigned as the CBSL Governor, Cabraal told Daily Mirror that, unlike certain other Governors, he will not leave.

"Further as everyone in this country knows, I have always dealt with malicious and hateful allegations in a calm, dignified and professional manner, and I will do that in this instance as well," Cabraal said. 

The Colombo Chief Magistrate's court this week issued an order preventing Cabraal from leaving the country until April 18.

The Additional Magistrate also issued notices ordering the former Central Bank Governor to appear in court on April 18. (JAMILA HUSAIN)

    Even if you escape with the help of Mahinda

    You better not even think of leaving, not that you will be allowed to go anywhere. Besides what is mentioned about you is not allegations, they are facts. Remember Your Carnival with the Rajapakse's are over. Their fairy tale like yours is not going to end Happily Ever After.

    You are the root cause of the present mess Sri Lanka in in. Can you remember when you said "printing money is no problem, we have enough dollars to pay for our loans, we will not go to the IMF and held the rupee at 202 / US dollar". The are the cause of all the problem today. You have looted the country for decades. You have to pay it back before you are welcome in hell.

    You would have gone by now if the court did not impose a travel ban. Of course you and many of your masters will be held to account.

    Mohamed Niyas Sunday, 10 April 2022 07:54 AM

    He is very well aware of nothing would happen with present AG and the case will be withdrawn due to technical reasons

    You will not be allowed to leave the country without paying back all what you robbed with family

    Ruscell Sunday, 10 April 2022 09:51 AM

    You are the scoundrel who ruined the economy of this country. You need to pay for your sins. I am well aware that the embedded journalists won't have the guts to publish my comments.

    Day time robbery Sunday, 10 April 2022 01:20 PM

    Dont leave this country but You leave to Port City and try to get some more contracts for your family members.

    Gamini Weeratunga Sunday, 10 April 2022 01:21 PM

    Do you mean to say that you will calmly explain your hand in creating this mess? You should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law for the crimes committed against Sri Lankans, from the newborns to the elderly. How many may have to die as a result of your stupidity and arrogance?

    sam Sunday, 10 April 2022 01:25 PM

    You are a professional and a looter, give us the money back
