It is revealed how Janaki paid bribes of 40 million, 10 million, and 20 million to Namal on 3 occasions.

Colombo Chief Magistrate Asanga S. Bodaragama ordered the remand of Geethanjali Janaki de Soysa Siriwardena Warakagoda, the former Managing Director of Krish Transworks Colombo (Pvt) Ltd, until October 06. She was arrested in connection with the alleged incident of giving a bribe of Rs. 70 million to acquire the Transworks Square land located in Fort, Colombo, from the Urban Development Authority and to expedite the relevant approvals.

The Magistrate issued this order after considering the complaint filed by the Commission to Investigate Allegations of Bribery or Corruption (CIABOC) against Indian nationals Amit Khattar and Rajendra Prasad, who are directors of the relevant company, as well as against Namal Rajapaksa. Furthermore, the Bribery Commission also sought court permission to record a statement from Namal Rajapaksa, who is currently remanded on a bribery charge related to the Airbus deal, regarding this incident.

Although the Attorney General had filed a case against Namal Rajapaksa in the High Court regarding the breach of trust by obtaining Rs. 70 million under the guise of promoting rugby, the Commission stated that the investigation into giving and receiving bribes would be conducted separately under the Anti-Corruption Act. Assistant Director, Attorney-at-Law Ama Wijesinghe, appearing for the Commission, stated that this investigation was initiated based on a written complaint received in 2023.

Information has been revealed that this suspect, who acted as a representative of Mahadev Company, the parent company of Krish Company, together with the other directors, transferred funds to Member of Parliament Namal Rajapaksa on three occasions through the bank account of Nimal Hemasiri Perera: Rs. 40 million on October 15, 2012, Rs. 10 million on November 18, and Rs. 20 million on December 12. The Commission emphasized that the suspect acted with full knowledge of all these transactions and that she did not act with innocent intentions.

The Commission also requested that warrants be issued for the arrest of the Indian national directors who have not yet responded to registered mail requesting their assistance in the investigations. The main witness, Nimal Hemasiri Perera, the owner of the bank account through which the money was transferred, is currently in Australia and has stated that he cannot return to Sri Lanka due to death threats against him. The Bribery Commission, which presented the suspect along with the certificate issued under Section 149 of the Anti-Corruption Act, stated that the company would also be named as a suspect in the future and requested that she be further remanded as there were no special circumstances to grant bail.

Attorney-at-Law Amila Dissanayake, appearing for the suspect, stated that according to a complaint made in 2015, the Criminal Investigation Department (CID) submitted a B report against Namal Rajapaksa in 2016, and a case was filed in the High Court regarding it in 2025. The lawyer further stated that since this suspect, as well as the two Indian nationals, have been named as witnesses in that High Court case, it is the court, not the Bribery Commission, that should decide whether individuals who are witnesses in the same incident should be made suspects.
