MIT expert warns of catastrophic consequences of USD 2.5 mn Treasury heist
Prof. Anuradhi News Govt. draws flak over Rs. 500 mn excess Aswesuma payments Published 8 mins agoon 2026/05/7 Close on the heels of the USD 2.5 mn theft from the Treasury, the Welfare Benefits Board has reported payment of nearly Rs 500 mn in excess to Aswesuma beneficiaries. Public action group ‘Free Lawyers’ has raised the latest fiasco to come to light with Speaker Dr. Jagath Wickramaratne, while requesting that the Parliament, in line with its constitutional obligations, initiate an inquiry. The letter, dated 06 May, signed by Maithree Gunaratne, PC, Attorney-at-Law Athula de Silva, and Rajith Keerthi Tennakoon, on behalf of ‘Free Lawyers’, has alleged that some of the Aswesuma beneficiaries have been paid twice while others received the additional/extra payment. Responding to The Island queries, Tennakoon said that sheer negligence on the part of those responsible for public finance was shocking. Alleging that the NPP government seemed to be operating outside basic rules and regulations pertaining to public finances, the former Governor asked the Speaker whether the wrongful Aswesuma payments had been made due to political appointments made at the expense of the experienced and competent staff.

Raising the issue under Standing Order 27(2), Karunanayake called for an urgent response from the Finance Minister, warning that the incident posed serious concerns over regulatory oversight, financial system integrity and statutory accountability under the Central Bank of Sri Lanka Act No. 16 of 2023. He questioned how the Central Bank of Sri Lanka had failed to detect or act upon, what he termed, a large-scale fraud over a period exceeding three years, despite its supervisory mandate. Karunanayake further claimed that at least two banks had reported suspicious transactions to the Financial Intelligence Unit, as far back as 16 months, prior to the public disclosure, and queried why such alerts had allegedly gone unacknowledged or unaddressed under Anti-Money Laundering and Countering the Financing of Terrorism (AML/CFT) obligations.
