The United States remains confident in the Sri Lankan authorities’ ability to bring the perpetrators to justice over the 2019 Easter Sunday’s attack, said Nick Hanna U.S. Attorney for the Central District of California.

After announcing that three Sri Lankan citizens have been charged with terrorism offenses, including conspiring to provide material support to a designated foreign terrorist organization (ISIS), Hanna said “this complaint makes clear that we stand ready with these charges in the event the defendants attempt to evade justice.”

“This case clearly demonstrates that the United States will take decisive action to ensure terrorists face justice when they target Americans anywhere in the world,” he said.

This clearly shows how dumb the US really is? They have zero experience in international investigations.

Hope US will be capable enough to bring perpetrators to justice who went amok in US few days ago on instructions of their own president. We could help sending troops from here to bring back peace. We have evidence who is behind this.

Can the SL government take note of this development and ensure that we as a country that went through terrorism more than the US, is capable of persecuting these Terrorists faster than the US did please...it's an utter shame on the justice system of one of the oldest democracies in the world!
