AG informs Special High Court: Interpol informs Mahendran’s name change Arjuna Mahendran has changed name to ‘Harjan Alexander’ The Attorney General (AG) has been informed by the International Criminal Police Organisation (Interpol) that former Central Bank of Sri Lanka (CBSL) Governor Arjuna Mahendran, who is currently wanted over the controversial Central Bank Treasury Bond Scam, has changed his name to “Harjan Alexander”. The AG has informed the Special High Court of Mahendran’s name change when the Bond Scam case was taken up before Justices Sampath Wijeakoon, Sampath Wijeratne, and Champa Janaki Rajaratne last morning (16). Representing the AG, Deputy Solicitor General Parinda Ranasinghe has informed the court that Interpol has reported that the first defendant of the case, the former CBSL Governor, has legally changed his name to “Harjan Alexander”. When the AG had inquired the Singaporean (AG) if the extradition papers of Mahendran needed to be amended accordingly, the AG Department of Singapore had informed that there was no such need. The Deputy Solicitor General has told the court that it will be informed, should there be any amendment needed with regard to the case. Furthermore, informing the court that the 10th defendant in the case, Ajahn Gardiye Punchihewa, currently resides in Singapore, the Deputy Solicitor General has requested for a reissuance of notice to appear before the court. Accordingly, the Special High Court has reissued notices on Punchihewa. The case is to be taken again on 17 November.
