Popular musicians Iraj Weeraratne appeared before the Cyber Crimes Division of the Criminal Investigation Department (CID) this morning (26), following a summons issued to him.
Speaking to the media, Iraj said he believes the CID summoned him over a recent video he published on his YouTube channel on March 25, in which he made several allegations against Sudath Thilakasiri.
He claimed that his video exposed what he described as a fraudulent request made in relation to donations for the Temple of the Tooth Relic (Sri Dalada Maligawa), and said the intention was to inform the public.
Iraj further said the video has already been watched by a large number of Sri Lankans across the world.
He was questioned and later released. However, the police have not officially disclosed the exact reason for summoning him. (Newswire)
