(Lanka-e-News -20.Oct.2015, 11.20AM) Wimal Weerawansa the so called Sri Lanka ‘s super (duper) patriot who paraded as a paragon of virtue and crowed from roof tops about his (cardboard) patriotism , has during his tenure of office as Minister of housing committed a fraud of over Rs. 27 million when making purchases of raw materials for Asphalt factory at Galapatha , Horana belonging to the State engineering corporation (SEC) under Weerawansa’s ministry of housing as alleged by the SEC ‘s sevaka sangamaya ( employees’ association). Incidentally , his wife too was arrested and remanded recently over a passport forgery fraud- what ‘Weerawansa patriotism’ teaches.
The SEC sevaka sangamaya has addressed a letter signed by Nishantha Fernando , the president of the Sevaka sangamaya to the present minister of housing Sajith Premadasa requesting him to institute a probe into this massive fraud and take legal action against those involved in it.
This fraud has been committed when purchasing the necessary diesel, Bitumen, metal and crushed stones during the period under minister Weerawansa .Several henchmen and stooges of Weerawansa were granted the concession and privilege to supply these materials of high value in violation of formal procedures . The most reprehensible part of this racket is , three diesel supplying centers involved were not even authorised sales points.
Even the Bitumen tar supplying center chosen by Weerawansa the so called loud mouthed vacuous patriot (cardboard) are not authorized sales centers .Others chosen too were similar.
While there were reputed authorized sales establishments , Weerawansa has selected unknown ,unauthorized ,unscrupulous wayside suppliers who are his henchmen after making exorbitant payments for the supplies.
The worst part of this nassive fraud is , while there exists a main Institution - the Ceylon petroleum Corporation to supply Bitumen tar at minimum price, it has 6 bowzers to supply the commodity , and its agents are there in those areas for those supplies, the cardboard patriot Weerawansa has entrusted the supplies of bitumen to his most unsuitable unscrupulous henchmen and stooges. These henchmen have been interrupting the supplies every now and then. Yet they have been given orders to continue with the supplies unduly and without regularity, and payments made to them even on the occasions they have not made the supplies, and neglected them .
The Sevaka sangamaya has therefore requested the present minister Sajith Premadasa to conduct a through investigation into this colossal fraud with a view to net in some more culprits involved who are in service. They have also urged that while punishing them internally , to lodge a complaint with the FCID too in order that Wimal Weerawnsa, and his crooked and corrupt stooges are brought before the law.
