A major controversy has erupted in Sri Lanka after the son of MP Jagath Vithana was arrested and remanded in connection with an illegally assembled luxury SUV.
The vehicle, allegedly smuggled and fraudulently registered, was reportedly sold by the daughter of another MP, Rohitha Abeygunawardena, whose family members now face a travel ban. The incident has led to an emotional outburst in Parliament, with MP Vithana pleading for justice and fairness in the investigation. The case has drawn significant public attention due to the involvement of multiple political families and allegations of corruption.
Authorities are continuing their investigation, with the accused set to remain in custody until August 1.
