The Commission to Investigate Allegations of Bribery or Corruption (CIABOC) arrested a retired Chief Engineer, a Mechanical Engineer, and an Assistant Managing Director of a private company in connection with the case.
The arrests relate to alleged irregularities in the procurement of two long-arm excavators, which reportedly caused financial losses to the state.
The suspects were produced before the Colombo Chief Magistrate’s Court and were later released on bail.
