Parliamentarian Namal Rajapaksa has issued an X message expressing his views on the Attorney General’s indictment of him in the infamous Krrish deal.
Namal Rajapaksa says that the government’s failure is being exposed through this case and that the truth will soon prevail.
The relevant X message is shown below.
‘I have read in the media that the Hon. Attorney General has filed an indictment against me in connection with the case involving the Krrish Company.
During the Yahapalanaya government, when this matter was initially investigated, the matter was referred to the Hon. Attorney General 8 years ago. Today after 8 years under the present government an indictment is filed. It is evident that the present government has launched a political witch hunt against the Rajapaksa family.
I remain confident in the judiciary and trust that justice will prevail. The NPP government seems to believe that by fabricating allegations against us, they can divert attention from their failures in governing the country and alleviating the serious burdens faced by the people. However, their shortcomings will soon be exposed for all to see.
The government cannot hide their failures behind Rajapaksa-bashing for long. I strongly and sincerely hope and believe that justice will prevail above all else.’
