The Police Department has circulated a warning letter in the internet and social media websites.

It says some Islamic fundamentalists led by Mohamed Zahran were planning yet another spate of bombings today targeting the traditional Sufi Mosques know as 'Kuppu Palli' or Auliya mosques.

The security around these mosques including the famous Dawatagaha Mosque in Town Hall has been strengthened following this threat. The letter has been posted on social media platforms such as Facebook.

Arresting people who are not involved will only cause issues and delays for the police. The police are arresting the evil ones who are responsible who are involved in the massacre
