Former Air Force Commander Roshan Goonetileke appeared before Sri Lanka's Financial Crimes Investigation Division on September 10 to provide a statement regarding an ongoing inquiry into the MiG aircraft procurement process.
Former Air Force Commander Air Chief Marshal Roshan Goonetileke attended the Financial Crimes Investigation Division (FCID) on September 10 morning, arriving at approximately 9:30 am in response to a prior notification requiring his presence. The senior defence official, who later attained the ceremonial rank of Marshal of the Air Force, was summoned to provide a statement as part of a continuing investigation into the MiG aircraft procurement transaction.
According to the FCID summons, Goonetileke was questioned regarding details of the procurement process and related transactions. The investigation centres on allegations of financial irregularities associated with the acquisition of MiG aircraft for the Sri Lanka Air Force. The MiG procurement deal has been subject to official inquiry for several years, according to available reports.
Both the notification and the appearance represent the continuation of formal investigative procedures into the defence procurement matter. No additional details regarding the substance of questioning or the broader scope of the FCID inquiry have been made public.
