UPFA MP Ranjith de Zoysa, at a meeting in Bulathkohupitiya , Kegalle, put the fate of the Joint Opposition on the edge, citing claims made over alleged foreign bank accounts of former President Mahinda Rajapaksa and his family.

UPFA MP,Ranjith De Zoysa stated that both Mahinda Rajapaksa and Namal Rajapaksa challenged them to prove the existence of a single dollar in foreign bank accounts. And they said if it was proven not only would they resign, they would even commit suicide but there is no talk of the 18 billion dollars because Mangala failed in maths and that figure was reduced to 1.8 billion dollars

“We ask the government to prove the existence of 1.8 billion dollars in the bank accounts of Mahinda Rajapaksa or any member of his family”, charged the MP who noted that the Joint Opposition is prepared to dissolve if the existence of such accounts are proven.
