One of the four executors of the last will of the late politician Anura Bandaranaike is intending to go to court over the uncertainty surrounding the document.
Mr. Bandaranaike's two sisters, Chandrika and Sunethra will not inherit anything according to the last will dated May 10th, 1996.
There have been claims of the existence of another last will, by close associates of the Bandaranaike family.
One executor of the 1996 document is Gamini Gunaratne, UNP councilor at the Western Provincial Council, who told 'Lanka Dissent' that he would go to court to get the matter sorted out.
The other three are millionaire businessman Tirukumar Nadesan, attorney Shanaka de Livera and Unesh Hafeel, who was Mr. Bandaranaike's personal secretary.
According to them, the last will inked nearly 12 years ago gives the ancestral home located in a more than 22-acre plot of land at Horagolla to the Anura Bandaranaike Foundation.
So is a house and land at no. 65/A, Colombo 07.
The other properties will be distributed among the late politician's staff, while his Nissan Cedric car goes to Minister Mervyn Silva.
Mr. Gunaratne says that claimants of the existence of another last will could present their case before the court.
