In a surprising turn of events, former Sri Lankan Member of Parliament Lohan Ratwatte, along with his wife and son, has reportedly gone missing following the discovery and seizure of an unregistered luxury vehicle at one of his residences. Police sources confirmed that the family is safe, but authorities have been unable to establish contact, as their mobile phones appear to be switched off.
The incident unfolded in the Mirihana Ambuldeniya area, where police impounded a high-end car parked in a property linked to Ratwatte. Upon further inspection, investigators discovered irregularities with the car’s registration. Authorities revealed that the vehicle’s chassis and engine numbers did not match any in the national database, confirming suspicions that it was not legally registered in Sri Lanka.
Ratwatte, a former parliamentarian with a history in public office, now faces growing scrutiny as investigations progress. The origin of the vehicle and potential lapses in its registration remain under investigation, and authorities are expected to take further steps to track down the family and uncover the full extent of the situation.
This incident could have significant implications for Ratwatte’s political and public reputation, especially if investigations reveal a larger network of unregistered assets or legal infringements. Further updates are awaited as police efforts to locate Ratwatte and clarify the circumstances surrounding the unregistered vehicle continue.
