By Shehan Chamika Silva

The CID today recorded statements from the suspect, former SLFP MP Sajin de Vass Gunawardene and his Accountant at the Court number 8 of the Colombo Chief Magistrate's Court over the inquiry conducted against him under the money laundering Act for failing to reveal how he earned Rs. 600 million.

Earlier, the Chief Magistrate had directed the suspect and the accountant to provide statements to the CID simultaneously today at the CID.

However, altering the decision, the Court had given a direction today morning to record statements from the suspect at the Chief Magistrate's Court.

Subsequently, the prison Authority had produced the suspect in Court number 8 and the CID had recorded statements for four and half hours. 

He was in the remand custody over the allegations.
