Honorable Sir,

I wish to draw your kind attention to a letter sent to the President, Sri Lanka Cricket on 11 February 2015 giving reference to a Match Fixing incident reported in Dambulla. (The relevant article dated 19/11/2014 downloaded from the internet and also the same article appeared in the Daily Mirror on the same date are attached for your reference, please.)

Considering the importance of the subject matter, I kindly request you to appoint a special committee to investigate the above matter as early as possible. As this is a very important matter pending for a long time without proper inquiry or investigation, it is very essential to hold an inquiry by the Ministry of Sports in order to avoid unnecessary interference by vested interest personalities.

Hon. Sir, it is also important to record statements from all relevant parties who are involved in this incident reported at Dambulla. You may also be aware by perusing the attached documents the incident had not been treated in an ethical manner due to reasons best known to the administrators who held office during the said period.

I am sure as a Minister who has an unstinted back ground for cricket, you will take necessary steps to safeguard the interest of the gentlemen’s game which was lacking in the past few years due to the unethical practices by some vested parties.

Thank you,

Yours Faithfully,

Shammi Silva
