Sri Lanka, Jan. 5 -- Former Minister Johnston Fernando arrived at the Financial Crimes Investigation Division (FCID) this morning (05) in connection with an ongoing investigation.

Police had earlier said that Johnston Fernando was required to appear before the FCID today, warning that a court arrest warrant would be sought if he failed to comply.

The investigation concerns allegations that the former Minister caused financial losses to the government by misusing a lorry belonging to Lanka Sathosa. Authorities have already initiated steps to take legal action as part of the probe.
