The Commission to Investigate Allegations of Bribery or Corruption has summoned businessman A. S. P. Liyanage to appear before the commission on 4 January to give a statement regarding the controversial Peacock Mansion.
In March 2016, he was prepared to give his luxurious mansion worth Rs. 750 m to former President Mahinda Rajapaksa as a gift, but changed his mind at the last moment saying he was scared to do so.
The Bribery Commission ordered him to appear at 9.30 am with all related legal papers.The Peacock Mansion which is located close to the Diywanna Oya, Rajagiriya, was designed by world famous architect the late Geoffrey Bawa.
