ET: Sri Lanka’s prime minister Ranil Wickremesinghe said late Easter Sunday that the nation’s intelligence services had received warnings about possible suicide bombings at “prominent churches” 10 days before the senseless attacks.
Wickremesinghe told reporters the morning of April 22 that the warning to Sri Lanka’s police by had not been acted upon and that the information had not been passed to him.
“We must also look into why adequate precautions were not taken,” Wickremesinghe said the previous evening.
The intelligence information had been sent to the country’s top officers by Police Chief Pujuth Jayasundara, according to documents cited by AFP.
“A foreign intelligence agency has reported that the NTJ (National Thowheeth Jama’ath) is planning to carry out suicide attacks targeting prominent churches as well as the Indian high commission in Colombo,” the alert said.
The NTJ is a radical Islamic group in Sri Lanka.
While no one has claimed responsibility for the attacks, Sri Lanka’s defense minister, Ruwan Wijewardene, identified the culprits as religious extremists. He said that while they have been identified, their names will not be released to the public for security reasons. more here

Probably Buddhists.
Have you all seen the tweets from Obama, Hillary, and other disgusting demonrats calling the people killed in the churches “Easter worshippers”? They can’t even say Christians.
Our local media won’t even mention islamists or terrorists or the Christian victims.
And stoopid people are mad at me for mentioning it on the local media fb pages.
Amazing. Is it fear of islamists or hatred of Christians or both?
This is interesting, but not unexpected.

“We must also look into why adequate precautions were not taken,”
Maybe because everyone on your police force is a muslim?
“He said that while they have been Identified, their names will not be released to the public for security reasons.” What the hell? They’re giving security to the culprits?
Shouldn’t there be a permanent warning about mooslims? Today is mooslim day in Sacramento. I kid you not!
Actually, they (and we) were warned 1400 years ago…
Damned Amish!
