Former President Mahinda Rajapaksa yesterday paid his final respects to former SriLankan Airlines Chief Executive Officer Kapila Chandrasena, whose body has been placed at a private funeral parlour in Borella. Several others also attended to pay their respects.
Speaking to the media during the visit, Rajapaksa also commented on a recent notice issued to him to appear before the Commission to Investigate Allegations of Bribery or Corruption (CIABOC).
Responding to questions on whether he would appear before the Commission, Rajapaksa said: ‘Yes, I will go. We must go, right?’
The final rites of Chandrasena were scheduled to take place at 5 p.m. yesterday at the Borella Public Cemetery.
