(Lanka-e-News -04.April.2021, 9.00PM) It has been two weeks since Azath Sally was arrested. The statement We will not change the Muslim law no matter who changes it appeared to be the immediate reason for Azath Sally s arrest. Minister of Police Sarath Weerasekera also stated that he would arrest Azath Sally s based on his statement on Muslim marriage law. However, Attorney General Dappula was of the opinion that it would be a big mess if Azard Salley would be arrested for the statement he made under the ICCPR.
An audio recording of former President Sirisena claiming that Sarath Weerasekara is the one who demolished the Ampara mosque had been released to the media at that time. According to the audio recording, Dappula told Sarath Weerasekera that he would be arrested before Azath Salley under the ICCPR.

(Lanka-e-News- 02.March.2021, 11.00PM) The Presidential Commission appointed in November 2019 to investigate the Islamic extremist attack on Sri Lanka on Easter Sunday, April 21, concluded its work last January 27th.

However, some of the highlights of the commission s report, which received international at

(Lanka-e-News - 25.Dec.2020, 4.25 AM) With the connivance of the present government, the most fraudulent procrastination and the slow progress of the investigations of the brutal Easter attack has revived a new discourse within the masses following the exposure made by Lanka e News on the 3rd of December.
Several members of the Opposition in the Sri Lankan Parliament as well as several political parties have commented on this. But it was limited only a few more voice cuts which did not have enough social influence to enforce the law against criminals fast.
Victims as well as those seeking justice have a strong belief about some connivance and involvement of a gang including the President of the good governance and a powerful group in the present Gotabaya Rajapaksa government in this brutal Easter attack.
