Colombo, April 3 (Daily Mirror)- Archbishop of Colombo Cardinal Malcolm Ranjith never received any prior warnings on the Easter Sunday attacks, the Catholic Church in Sri Lanka said today.
Church Spokesman Fr. Cyril Gamini Fernando, responding to a question raised by journalists at a media briefing said speculations that Cardinal Ranjith had received prior warnings of the Easter Sunday attacks were totally false.
"The story that Cardinal Ranjith did not participate in an Easter service on the fateful year of 2019 is also false as he did hold an Easter Vigil on April 20, 2019. The Archbishop of Colombo traditionally participates in the Easter service on Saturday night and does not participate in any service on Easter Sunday," Fr. Fernando said.

playing safe after making veiled statements in his sacred addresses at the alter and behind an array of public microphones for cheap publicity and vatican's benefit and with the latest "disclosures" now made to look a fool A good topic for the local authorities to probe

Cardinal from the start said that he wasn't warned. Now the government or other interested security officers are trying an escape route. Why did the government failed to make public the complete report of the Commission appointed? May be to hide material. Truth will be out soon

What a beautiful co incident

True. If the cardinal has any info or concerns why not give statement to CID. Just fishing for loose publicity will not help.

People who are drowning will couch to a straw. Running out of who to blame. So having a go at the cardinal. What a bunch of clowns run this country.

A lawless country with a false vision like worshiping the KingRaja's hat. Now 80% of the people are against it and won't let shooting the apple on the head.

There was no doubt that His Eminence was totally unaware of these attacks until they took place. To the contrary those who had enough reliable and informative warnings about these attacks, did exactly nothing until they took place. The worst guy in this case is none other than Maithree.

If MS and RW were warned (and so they say) how come one say that Cardinal knew. What crap.
Abraham Thursday, 04 April 2024 07:30 PM
Don't try to spread false info. The commission appointed to look into the incident has implicated several officials including the president but has cleared the prime minister of any knowledge or any wrong doing. MS has excluded him from all the security meetings.
