MP Rohitha Abeygunawardena’s son-in-law Dhanushka Weerakkody has appeared before the Mathugama Courts this afternoon.
The case relates to the investigation into the alleged illegal registration of a vehicle allegedly assembled illegally, which was found in the possession of MP Jagath Withana’s son.
The Panadura Walana Anti-Corruption Unit had also launched an operation a few days ago to arrest Rohitha Abeygunawardena’s daughter Rochelle and her husband.
The police stated today that if the daughter of MP Rohitha Abeygunawardena, who is currently evading the police, does not surrender to the police in the next few days, steps will be taken to obtain a freezing order on her properties.
