The Kaduwela Magistrate’s Court has imposed a travel ban on Daisy Forrest, the grand-aunt of Yoshitha Rajapaksa, over a Rs. 59 million joint account she held with Yoshitha. 

Police have filed charges against both under the Money Laundering Act after investigations since 2016 found Rajapaksa was unable to provide satisfactory explanations regarding the funds.

According to the investigation, the funds in question were placed in fixed deposits and bank accounts, including a joint account maintained with Daisy Forrest.

The Attorney General directed Police to name Forrest as a suspect in the case. 

As a result, both Rajapaksa and Forrest were formally named as suspects in the Kaduwela Magistrate’s Court on Sunday (11), with charges filed under the Money Laundering Act, Police Spokesman SSP Buddhika Manatunga said at a media briefing. (Newswire)
