SPC Chairman files complaint with CID over ‘false and baseless allegations made against Health Ministry’

The State Pharmaceuticals Corporation (SPC) Chairman has filed a complaint with the CID calling for a full-scale investigation into false and baseless allegations made against the Health Ministry, its institutions and officials.

Speaking to the media after filing the complaint, SPC Chairman Dr. Manuj C. Weerasinghe said that the complaint was filed with the CID on Wednesday (15) stating that the constant and relentless false accusations made by the media in recent weeks have been targeted on the drug supply network that is managed by the SPC and healthcare service officials coming under the Health Ministry.

The SPC Chairman stated that these continuous false claims made by the media against the healthcare services and its officials have disrupted decision-making and operations within the healthcare sector.

Dr. Weerasinghe has also raised concerns stating that it is suspected that the allegations and accusations made by the media could be part of an effort to destabilise public healthcare services and therefore called for a full-scale investigation by the CID into the complaint he has filed.
