The Hon. Ananda Wijepala
Ananda Wijepala said Opposition members were making allegations against senior public officials, including the Ministry Secretary, Shani Abeysekara and the IGP, who were not present to respond in the House. He argued that these attacks intensified as fraud suspects were being arrested and investigations were continuing, and stated that the relevant Minister would provide clarification.
