THE Free Lawyers Association has called for the appointment of a Parliamentary Select Committee to investigate the $ 2.5 million Treasury cyber fraud, alleging that the stolen funds remain in a United States bank account and criticising Parliament's oversight committees for failing to produce reports on the incident.
In separate letters to President Anura Kumara Dissanayake and Speaker Dr. Jagath Wickramaratne, the Association requested the establishment of a Select Committee to probe the cyber heist and other recent financial irregularities and recommend measures to prevent similar incidents in the future.
