06 Feb 2020

Former CEO SriLankan Airlines Kapila Chandrasena and his wife Priyanka Niyomali Wijenayaka have surrendered to the Criminal Investigation Department (CID), Police Spokesperson Jaliya Senaratne said today (6). According to Senaratne, Chandrasena and wife are currently providing a statement to the CID and will be arrested and produced to court today. The Colombo Magistrate Court had issued a warrant on Monday (3) to arrest Chandrasena and his wife Priyanka Niyomali Wijenayaka over the recently exposed Airbus -SriLankan Airlines bribery deal. International media reports on Saturday (1) revealed that SLA had been a part of Airbus’s massive scheme to offer and pay bribes to secure deals in many countries. Investigators revealed that between 1 July 2011 and 1 June 2015, Airbus failed to prevent persons associated with it from bribing others concerned with the purchase of aircraft by SLA from Airbus, namely directors and/or employees of SLA. Reports said that Airbus employees have offered up to $ 16.84 million to a company registered under a wife of a SriLankan Executive to influence SLA’s purchase of 10 Airbus aircraft and the lease of an additional four aircraft. A sum of $ 2 million had already been deposited by Airbus to the account of the said company in Brunei.
