Colombo, Dec. 4 (Daily Mirror) -  Sri Lanka Cricket (SLC) has lodged a complaint with the Commission to Investigate Allegations of Bribery or Corruption in Sri Lanka against MP Roshan Ranasinghe over the alleged misuse of funds provided by SLC to the National Sports Fund for the development of various other sports in Sri Lanka.  

The decision to file this complaint stems from the concern that Roshan Ranasinghe has not appropriately disclosed the utilization of funds allocated by SLC for the intended purposes, SLC said in a statement.

"This move comes in the wake of a discernible disparity between the information disclosed to the media by Ranasinghe and the response received by SLC under a Right to Information (RTI) application, outlining the specifics of the expenditures made," the statement added.
