SLPP MP Namal Rajapaksa has expressed confidence in the judiciary following the Attorney General’s decision to file an indictment against him in connection with the Krrish Company case.

He claimed the indictment is part of a political witch hunt by the current government, targeting the Rajapaksa family.

“I have read in the media that the Hon. Attorney General has filed an indictment against me in connection with the case involving the Krrish Company. During the Yahapalanaya government, when this matter was initially investigated, the matter was referred to the Hon. Attorney General 8 years ago. Today after 8 years under the present government, an indictment is filed,” Rajapaksa said on X.

He claimed the government is using these charges to distract people from its own failures.

“The NPP government seems to believe that by fabricating allegations against us, they can divert attention from their failures in governing the country and alleviating the serious burdens faced by the people. However, their shortcomings will soon be exposed for all to see,” he further said.

He further said he has full trust in the judiciary and remains confident that justice will prevail. “I strongly and sincerely hope and believe that justice will prevail above all else.”
