Police Headquarters sources say investigating officers of the CID are deeply worried regarding the political pressures being exerted on the bond scam investigations.
That is because various criticisms are being levelled against the CID for the manner Arjun Aloysius and Kasun Palisena were arrested yesterday and for providing the information to the media regarding the time of arrest.
Sources have now revealed that the incident was telecasted live on Sirasa TV after an IT specialist with political connections who works for the department provided them with the necessary details. This has now brought great disrepute to the CID.
Pressure to arrest the father as well :
Sources also say a senior attorney of the Attorney General's Department has continuously pressurized the CID officers to arrest five suspects including Arjun Aloysius's father in connection to this investigation.
But while claiming his father and the others have no connection to the issue, the CID requested the courts on Friday to name Former CB governor Arjuna Mahendran, Owner of Perpetual Treasuries Arjun Aloysius and CEO Kasun Palisena which was granted by the Fort Magistrate.
