During that time he had escaped to Thailand as he was having a diplomatic passport.However he had freely met former president Mahinda Rajapaksa during his visit to Thailand.
As he had been issued with warrants to arrest how is he moving freely is the question that had been asked from the cabinet media spokesperson Minister Rajitha Senaratne.
At the cabinet media briefing the cabinet spokesperson Minister Rajitha Senaratne had said this.
