The main culprit of 11.1 million attempted fraud at Sri Lanka Cricket Board (SLC) has gone missing as the CID went to his home town to arrest him, Cricket Age reliably learns.
Last month, that suspected employee of the SLC Finance division, who attempted to abduct this money by transferring it to offshore account, had written a fake resolution to SONY Channel. In the letter, written on SLC letter head, he stated that SLC has done interim arrangements to operate few Hongkong accounts and thus he requested to deposit the money on those accounts for interim period.
SLC have claimed to suspend that suspect employee from immediate effect, however the reality is that no such action has been taken and only finance division room has been sealed.
According to sources, last week, CID went to his home to arrest him, however he was not there at that time.
After that, CID went to SLC yesterday to search his sealed room.
It is noteworthy that the suspected employee was associated with former SLC President Thilanga Sumathipala’s Sumathi group.
