The Kaduwela Magistrate's Court today (8 November) ordered businessman Viranjith Tambugala to provide a statement to the Criminal Investigation Department’s Illegal Assets Investigation Division.
The court noted that since Viranjith Tambugala has not been named as a suspect in the ongoing money laundering case, there is no requirement to present facts against the investigating officers.
Consequently, the Kaduwela Magistrate informed that there is no need for Tambugala to appear before the court again.
Accordingly, the Criminal Investigation Department’s Illegal Assets Investigation Division has stated that Tambugala will be notified to appear before the relevant unit at a future date.
