Court Takes Up Alleged Rs. 16.6 Mn Misuse Case as Saman Ekanayake Appears

Former Secretary to the President Saman Ekanayake appeared before the Colombo Fort Magistrate’s Court today as proceedings resumed in the case involving former President Ranil Wickremesinghe over the alleged misuse of public funds.

The court took up the matter during today’s session, with Wickremesinghe also appearing earlier in connection with the same case. The complaint alleges that state funds amounting to over Rs. 16.6 million were improperly used to cover expenses for a private trip to the United Kingdom in 2023, undertaken to attend his wife’s graduation ceremony.

Hearings continued as part of the ongoing legal process examining the alleged misuse of government resources.
