Dilrukshi Dias resigns from Bribery Commission

Mrs. Dilrukshi Dias Wickramasingha, Director General of the Bribery or Corruption Commission has tendered her letter of resignation.

It is presumed that this decision has been taken based on the statement made by the President with regard to producing in courts the former Secretary of Defence and the Commanders-of-Chief of

the three Forces without his notice. By now rumours are spreading around that officers of the Bribery Commission, the CID and the FCID are withdrawing in disfavour of continuing with their duties and that the other affiliated officials at the head of these institutions too have been disappointed. Whether the President has accepted the resignation of Mrs. Dilrukshi Dias Wickramasingha or not has still not been reported.
