Arrest and resignation
[
edit]
In October 2023, the National Medicines Regulatory Authority (NMRA) revealed forged documents were submitted for Customs clearance to procure a batch of vials containing human
immunoglobulin which also failed to pass quality tests. It was claimed to have been produced by Livealth Biopharma Pvt Ltd. India and imported by a local medicine supplier called Isolez Biotech Pharma AG (Pvt) Ltd. However, the Indian manufacturer informed the NMRA that they did not manufacture or export the immunoglobulin batch. Around Rs. 130 million was believed to have been misappropriated. On 2 February 2024, Rambukella was arrested by criminal investigators in
Colombo, alongside former Secretary to the Ministry of Health Janaka Chandragupta, and produced to Maligawatta courts. A judge ordered him to be remanded until 15 February.
[9][10] Rabukwella resigned from his ministerial post on 3 February following public pressure.
