The joint chambers of commerce strongly condemned the multiple explosions that occurred yesterday at religious places and several hotels in Colombo and suburbs.
“We strongly condemn these attacks. Our thoughts and prayers are with the victims, their families and all those affected by the explosions,” a brief statement said. The business chambers urged the authorities to maintain law and order and called for speedy actions to investigate and bring the perpetrators before the law.
“It is vital at this point that the nation stands united and not be misled by unverified reports/information. We call upon all Sri Lankans to act in a responsible manner and assist the authorities to restore normalcy,” the statement said.
