Arrangements have been made to send the extradition documents of former Governor of the Central Bank of Sri Lanka Arjuna Mahendran after President Maithripala Sirisena signed the final documents yesterday (6).
Mahendran is an accused in the controversial Central Bank bond scam in 2015.
Earlier this week, the Attorney General’s Department handed over documents amounting to 21,000 pages to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Ministry of Defence of Sri Lanka for authentication and transmission to the Government of Singapore.
The Government of Singapore meanwhile stated that it would consider the extradition request, but was awaiting the required documents.
