Former Sri Lanka Minister Nirupama Rajapaksa’s name has been mentioned in Pandora Papers, which is a leak of almost 12 million documents that revealed hidden wealth, tax avoidance and, in some cases, money laundering by some of the world’s rich and powerful.
Some 35 current and former leaders and more than 300 public officials are featured in the files from offshore companies, dubbed the Pandora Papers.
The data was obtained by the International Consortium of Investigative Journalists (ICIJ) in Washington DC, which has been working with more than 140 media organisations on the biggest ever global investigation.
