The Criminal Investigation Department (CID) has informed the Colombo Magistrate’s Court that an investigation is underway into MP Namal Rajapaksa’s qualifications as a lawyer.
The probe follows a complaint alleging that the former minister received preferential treatment during a law examination held 11 years ago.
It is claimed that Rajapaksa fraudulently obtained his law degree and was assisted by two lawyers in a private room while sitting for the exam.
Namal Rajapaksa has denied the allegation. (NewsWire)
