Ravi K Before Bond Commission Today: Bombshells And Fireworks Expected

Foreign Minister Ravi Karunanayake will appear before the Presidential Commission to Inquire into the Bond Scam, this morning. 

At the Bond Commission today, Karunanayake is expected to make a statement on the 'Penthouse' he allegedly leased with Arjuna Aloysius's money. 

Many observers believe that Karunanayake's statement to the commission will be a 'bombshell', in many ways.

The Bond Commission summoned Karunanayake after Anika Wijesuriya, the daughter of businessman Nihil Wijesuriya, revealed about the super-luxury apartment to the commission, last week. 

The apartment is originally owned by Anika, a classmate of Aloysius, at the Colombo International School (CIS).

At the time Karunanayake leased the super-luxury apartment in 2016, he was the Finance Minister and Aloysius was already at the centre of the Treasury Bonds controversy. 

Speaking to media a few days ago, Karunanayake said he would a comprehensive statement before the Bond Commission.
