The party membership of Puttalam district MP Ali Sabry Raheem has been revoked by the All Ceylon Makkal Congress (ACMC).
According to a ACMC party spokesman, the decision was taken after an inquiry launched by the party’s disciplinary committee.
Raheem was detained at the Bandaranaike International Airport (BIA) in Katunayake along with a total of 3.5kg of undeclared gold and 91 mobile phones on 23 May 2023 and was later released after paying a fine of Rs. 7.5 million.
