Karunanayake was summoned to testify before the Commission, and stated that he had no knowledge of how his rent was paid. This caused a major public outcry, with calls for his resignation and negative feedback to many of the proposals he presented to President Sirisena, such as his request for the use of Visumpaya as his official residence as Minister of Foreign Affairs.
