The Attorney General’s Coordinating Officer Nishara Jayaratne has said the matter has been referred to the PSC for an inquirer to be appointed to conduct preliminary investigations in to the controversial telephone conversation.
The audio clip of a telephone conversation supposedly between Senadhipathi and former Director General of the Commission to Investigate Allegations of Bribery or Corruption (CIABOC) and incumbent Solicitor General Dilrukshi Dias Wickramasinghe was recently released through social media.
Taking to his Facebook account, Senadhipathi, who is currently receiving medical treatment in Singapore, released an audio clip of the telephone conversation which discussed the case filed against the Avant-Garde Maritime Services.
The female voice in the recording, purportedly of Wickramasinghe, can be heard saying “I know how to make the law and break the law.”
She also expressed her regrets over filing the Avant-Garde case while blaming the country’s disruptive politics as the reason behind the case.
Wickramasinghe has so far not denied the phone conversation.
However in a Facebook post, she has called on the Avant-Garde chairman to release the unedited version of the conversation to the public, while also alleging that he has distorted it.
