On Easter Sunday, simultaneous terrorist attacks at three churches and at
three hotels in and around Colombo left 359 dead and hundreds injured.
So far, all evidence shows that the explosions
were carried out by a local Islamic terrorist group, because they knew their
targets well, and chose them and the day of the attacks for their highly symbolic importance.
Our heartfelt condolences to the families and friends of the innocent
victims.
Our thoughts and prayers are with them. We, also, wish to sincerely congratulate all Sri Lankans for their courage and resilience over
this severe national tragedy that has left the entire civilised world in shock.
