Daisy Forrest, grandmother of Yoshitha Rajapaksa, has been arrested by the Criminal Investigation Department (CID) a short while ago.
She arrived at the CID this morning to provide a statement in connection with a money laundering case.
She will be produced before the Kaduwela Magistrate’s Court.
Daisy Forrest was named a suspect in the case following investigations into a Rs. 59 million joint account held by Yoshitha Rajapaksa and herself. The inquiry revealed that Rajapaksa failed to provide a reasonable explanation for the source of the funds.
