When the liquidation case of Touchwood Investments PLC was taken up on 31 July, counsel appearing on behalf of the company informed courts that Touchwood Investments chairman and chief executive officer Lanka Wijendra Kiwulegedera is currently out of the island and that he would return only on 4 August (today).

Accordingly, the case would be called again on 7 August and Mr. Kiwulegedera has to provide courts with the statement of affairs of the company.
