The Archbishop of Colombo, Cardinal Malcolm Ranjith, has called on Christians and the people of Sri Lanka to form a Jana Paura to demand the truth about the Easter Sunday attacks of 2019 during which over 200 people died.

"For the good and future of the country," Cardinal Ranjith continued,"the citizens must know what happened during the massacre. In the past there have been murders, violence and religious and inter-ethnic conflicts, during which the principles of the rule of law and justice were ignored in order to obtain and maintain power. This corrupt political culture adopts the strategy of making people forget all these crimes.

"This country now has a deeply corrupt political power base. In such a situation, criminal activities could also be undertaken in the future to achieve or maintain power," the prelate stressed."This is the context in which it is necessary to uncover the truth behind the Easter attacks and bring to justice the masterminds and criminals behind them. Four years have passed, yet it has still not been possible to identify the perpetrators and bring those responsible to justice.
