Former Defense Secretary Was Questioned By The Financial Crimes Investigations Division

The former Defense Secretary Gotabaya Rajapakshe was questioned by the Police Financial Crimes Investigations Division this morning regarding the alleged MIG Deal and the share issuance of  Lanka Hospitals.

The former defense secretary had filed a fundamental rights petition at Supreme Court on 11th of May by challenging the legality of forming  financial crimes division and seeking an interim order to prevent the crimes division from arresting him over the charges.

After considering the petition a  two member Judge Panel of the Supreme Court  has controversially  issued an interim order last week  by  avoiding  financial crimes division from arresting the former defense secretary until this October.
