The Hon. Mujibur Rahuman
Mujibur Rahuman questioned the Government’s ability to conduct credible investigations while retaining officials linked to past non-cooperation. He referred to CID records and alleged that Dialog, under Mr. Wijayasuriya, released requested data only after senior political figures warned that its licence could be cancelled, asking the Minister how investigations would proceed in that context.
Verbatim record (translated)
Machine-translated from Sinhala / Tamil / English¶ 01 Hon. Minister, even so, when Mr. Wijayasuriya headed Dialog, the company did not provide the information — as CID records will show. It was only after President Maithripala Sirisena, Mangala Samaraweera and Rajitha Senaratne warned that Dialog’s licence would be cancelled that the data were released. He worked even under Gotabaya Rajapaksa without compensation; that is not the point. We trust your investigations, but how will you proceed while retaining such officials?
