Former Member of Parliament Sajin Vass Gunawardena, known for his close ties to the Rajapaksa family, surrendered to court today following an arrest warrant issued over unpaid personal income tax amounting to Rs. 36.9 million.
Legal action was initiated after authorities determined that Gunawardena had defaulted on his tax obligations. The court had issued a warrant for his arrest, prompting his voluntary appearance before the judiciary.
The case has drawn public attention due to Gunawardena’s political background and past influence in government circles. Further proceedings are expected as the court addresses the tax evasion charges.
