Political Corruption and Arrests
Multiple prominent political figures and their relatives are being arrested in connection with financial fraud and misuse of state resources. These cases involve alleged scams worth millions and investigations by financial crimes divisions.
Turns out "family business" in Sri Lankan politics has a whole new meaning—it's not about passing down the company, it's about passing down the arrest warrant. At this point, relatives of politicians should just go ahead and pre-book their bail hearing; it's basically a rite of passage.
