Former President Mahinda Rajapaksa left the Commission to Investigate Allegations of Bribery or Corruption a short while ago after recording a statement for more than two hours.
Rajapaksa appeared before the Commission this morning (12) to provide a statement regarding the alleged SriLankan Airlines Airbus procurement deal.
The summons followed a notice issued by the Bribery Commission requesting a statement in connection with an alleged US$ 2 million bribe reportedly linked to the procurement of aircraft for SriLankan Airlines in 2013.
Former Aviation Minister Priyankara Jayaratne has also reportedly been notified to appear before the Commission.
