CID arrested (5th) a woman who ran an office on the 34th floor of WTC under the guise of a money investment company. The name of the woman arrested by CID is Thilini Priyamali
Thilini Priyamali was arrested based on a complaint made by a prominent doctor. However, at the time of arrest, there were a number of complaints against this woman in the police books. This woman has worked very closely with a number of top officials in the security sector. Using those connections, the complaints against her were cleverly suppressed.
According to the information that has been revealed, the amount she has defrauded has been revealed to be close to 4000 million. Millionaire businessmen, powerful politicians, and well-known professionals are among the people who have been scammed.
It has also been revealed that they have had sexual relations with the VIPs who gave them money and have blackmailed using those scenarios. We have received all the evidence related to this.
She paid 16 lakhs monthly as rent for the WTC office.
Investigations have revealed that Isuru Shammika Bandara, who appears to be her partner, is also involved in this racket. In 2020, he has obtained a certificate from an academy in Weligama and it is classified as a BA degree. From 2021 onwards he appears with a doctoral degree.
This couple became overnight billionaires. But the law was not implemented under money laundering. Also, this rogue woman was accompanied as a special guest for the public safety committee establishment ceremonies in Colombo by Law & order ministry. This incident explains how inefficient Sri Lanka’s investigative agencies are.
The person who gave the information told us that this woman had an affair with a top person in charge of security and various pressures are being inaction to suppress the investigations.
