A group of customers who invested money in a firm called Eon Lanka has complained to the Inspector General of Police C.D. Wickramaratne that the owner of the financial institution which was sealed by the Central Bank of Sri Lanka two years ago has defrauded Rs.9,910 million.
A large number of retirees, including those of the three armed forces and the police, have deposited money in the institution in Kurunegala which remained open from 2013 to 2020.
It has been stated in the complaint made to the Inspector General of Police that after the Central Bank of Sri Lanka sealed the institution on 10.07.2020, its owner has defrauded the depositors money. Those who have lost their money have formed an organization to seek justice and recover their money, its secretary retired Army officer R.Dissanayake said.
