Officials of the Bribery Commission today recorded a statement from Power and Energy Minister Ravi Karunanayake. 

Sources close to Karunanayake said the Minister's statement to the commission was based on the Treasury Bonds investigation. 

Perpetual Treasuries CEO Arjuna Aloysius also gave a statement to the Bribery Commission, a few days ago, on the same matter. 

Karunanayake was the Finance Minister at the time the controversial Treasury Bonds auction took place. 

It was revealed before the Presidential Commission on the Treasury Bonds controversy that Karunanayake and Aloysius were close friends.
