Stating that he had informed the Criminal Investigations Department (CID) a month ago on receiving death threats, Gunawardena said the CID is yet to obtain a statement from him in this regard.

Thushan Gunawardena’s recent revelations on the various financial malpractices underway at the Consumer Affairs Authority led to the uncovering of the ‘Garlic scam’ involving State-owned enterprise Lanka Sathosa.

Speaking to the media, he had also blamed Minister of Trade Bandula Gunawardena and State Minister Lasantha Alagiyawanna over their conduct.
