I know Nissanka, if I ever had the slightest knowledge, if I ever thought that something like this would happen, I don't know if you will believe me or not, Nissanka Senadhipathi: I got two messages sent by you madam Dilrukshi Dias: If I ever thought that you will lose your business, I would have never filed this case, because of this dirty politics. I have read over 7500 letters at your office. I have personally read all of it. So I know how you looked after your officers on the ship and how you looked after their families. I was very sad. I will not file an action against Gotabaya Rajapaksa. I regret everything that I did then. I know how to break the law and make the law both.
