President Anura Kumara Dissanayake has revealed that a Rajapaksa had received compensation for a house in the Sevanagala area, which was destroyed during the May 09 people’s protest in 2022.
President Dissanayake said that a report is to be compiled soon on the Rajapaksa, who had received the compensation.
Providing further information, the President said it has been found that the house in question was not owned by this particular Rajapaksa.
“The land deed is under the name of a different person, while the house is under the name of another. However, the compensation has been received by a Rajapaksa,” he said.
President Dissanayake said he had recently received the report containing this information and that it is yet to be presented to Parliament.
President Anura Kumara Dissanayake made the revelation while addressing a public meeting in Buttala on Monday (31 Mar). (Newswire)
