The Hon. Mujibur Rahman
Mujibur Rahman alleged that 323 containers were recently released by Customs without proper inspection and criticized the failure to table the owners’ names in Parliament. He urged the Government to publish that list, arguing that disclosures about former ministers and past government figures should be matched by transparency on alleged wrongdoing under the current administration.
Verbatim record (translated)
Machine-translated from Sinhala / Tamil / English¶ 01 I will conclude.
¶ 02 We know that recently Customs released 323 containers. Today it was not possible to table in Parliament the names of the owners of those 323 containers. The House did not disclose to whom those goods belonged. Yet, we often see lists of former ministers and some leaders of the previous government being publicized; that is fine—publish them. But while doing that, we remind you to also publish the list regarding the major fraud committed under your own government: 323 containers released by Customs without proper inspection. Thank you very much.
