Sri Lanka, July 22 -- MP Chamindrani Kiriella who raised a privilege issue against the Committee on Public Enterprises (COPE) today alleged that it has come up with a false allegation that she has illegally taken over a state land in Hanthana.

"I don't own any plots of land in Hanthana nor have I taken over any state owned land. I request the Speaker to take action against COPE and others who disseminate false information," she told Parliament.
