Cardinal Malcolm Ranjith says he is ready to launch street protests if Sri Lanka’s government does not bring the culprits behind last year’s Easter bombings to book.

He said the administration has not taken action regarding the Easter Sunday suicide bombings that killed about 300 people, including 40 foreign nationals, and injured at least 500.

“The most senior person in the government should have been brought to the Criminal Investigation Department and question-ed if he had been aware in advance of the Easter bomb blasts,” said Cardinal Ranjith on March 8 at Tewatta Church.

“There are reports that police officers investigating the Easter Sunday suicide bomb blasts are currently being transferred.”

The cardinal said the government should publish all the interim committee reports on the bomb blasts.
