Catholics hold candles while praying at St. Anthony's church in Colombo on Easter Sunday , April 9, 2023 As the Church in Sri Lanka prepares to celebrate the fourth anniversary of the 2019 Easter Sunday bombings, on 21 April, Cardinal Malcolm Ranjith of Colombo has invited Srilankan Christians and of other religious creeds to join a human chain protest next Friday, supporting the Church’s quest for truth and justice over the attacks.
Since then, investigations have faltered and Cardinal Ranjith, along with the Church and the families of the victims, has consistently voiced questions and doubts over the Sri Lankan authorities’ narrative of the attacks, accusing the Government of covering up the truth and the real culprits for political gain.
According to the verdict, Sirisena failed to prevent the carnage, despite detailed intelligence reports suggesting such attacks were imminent. Along with Sirisena, former Sri Lankan police, intelligence and defense chiefs were held accountable for not adopting preventive measures and ordered to pay compensation.
“We remember how the former Attorney General, speaking about the Easter Sunday tragedy, stated that there was a grand conspiracy behind these attacks. It was, as many have concluded, was primarily a political plot to come to power”, the Cardinal wrote in a message released on 16 April, inviting Srilankans to join the Church's campaign demanding truth and justice for the victims.
