Former Minister Rajitha Senaratne and former MP Chathura Senaratne arrived at the Colombo Crimes Division (CCD) a short while ago.
This was to record statements over a false complaint filed by a journalist alleging that he was abducted.
A journalist recently lodged a complaint claiming that he had been abducted and assaulted by four individuals on March 10.
However, following a lengthy investigation by the CCD, the complaint made by the 62-year-old journalist and owner of the ‘Siyarata’ newspaper was proven to be false, police said.
The Senaratne duo was initially requested to appear before the CCD on Friday (March 19).
However, they had informed the authorities that they would not visit on the scheduled date and that they would visit today (March 22) instead.
