Mahinda Rajapakse controls country`s 80 % finances!

(October, 12, Colombo, Sri Lanka Guardian) Sri Lanka’s Fifth Executive president’s younger Brother Basil Rohana Rajapakse, appointed as M.P. Allegedly aimed to undermine investigations into country’s financial irregularities and exposures by PAC and COPE findings.

The recent appointment of Basil Rajapakse as M.P. through the National list looked upon by many a political expert as not without sinister aims was confirmed by his behaviour at the Committee meeting at the Parliamentary complex.

UPFA National list New MP allegedly attempted to interfere with the proceedings of the Committee on Public Enterprises (COPE) meeting. The calculated , desperate and diabolic attempt by Basil Rajapakse to suppress findings ,and deviate from the normal procedures before the COPE Chairman Wijedasa Rajapakse ,officials of the Auditor General’s Dept. and others, met with open tremendous disapproval and displeasure.

Not only had the COPE Chairman, even Ministers of the Govt. Amaraweera and Bhaila walked out with him.

Sources believe that Basil Rajapakse has been appointed to both the COPE and Public accounts Committee (PAC) by the Government to sweep under the rug, the COPE and PAC findings which expose massive frauds of Ministers and Govt. Depts.
