Verbatim record (translated)

Machine-translated from Sinhala / Tamil / English

¶ 01 Hon. Speaker, my first Supplementary Question is this: During the previous Government there was strong public opinion and allegations regarding drug rackets around the NMRA. Even a former Minister was remanded with multiple cases. Serious allegations were made that data deletion enabled such rackets. You named certain technical staff. But do you have information on those behind them—the real masterminds who directed these actions? Have they been identified?
