Former Central Bank Governor Arjuna Mahendran yesterday failed to appear before the Committee on Public Enterprises (COPE) though his successor and other Central Bank officials were present. 

The Auditor General’s report on the Central Bank bond issue was handed over to Speaker Karu Jayasuriya and to the COPE committee on 29 June.

The report allegedly implicated Mahendran’s first bond issuance. Newly appointed Central Bank Governor Dr. Indrajit Coomaraswamy and other officials were however present.
