Four suspects arrested over the incident of setting fire to Acting President Ranil Wickremesinghe's private residence in Colombo were remanded till July 27 by Colombo Fort Magistrate's Court.

These four suspects are to be produced before an identification parade on next hearing date.

Defence Counsel appearing for the suspects alleged that police have failed to arrest the main suspect involved in the incident. In reply, the CID informed Colombo Fort Magistrate Thilina Gamage that an individual named Evan Perera wanted for questioning over the incident has already fled the country and further said the airport authorities have been informed in this regard.

Since 1983, Tamils are still waiting for the arrest of those Sinhalese thugs who killed and burnt Tamils and Tamil houses

They say Ranil had removed all valuables from the house before getting some people to set fire to it.

The pogroms on Tamils and burning their homes was state sponsored. The karmic retribution burning of RWs home was people sponsored
