The Attorney General has filed indictments against Sri Lanka Podujana Peramuna (SLPP)  Parliamentarian Namal Rajapaksa over the alleged misappropriation of Rs.70 million belonging to Krrish Company.

The indictments were filed before the Colombo High Court by the Attorney General, alleging the misappropriation of Rs. 70 million provided by the Indian real estate company Krrish Lanka Pvt. Ltd. for the development of rugby in Sri Lanka.
