Published on: Thursday 13 June 2019
Five Sri Lankans suspected of having links to Easter Sunday bombings that killed more than 250 people were brought home in police custody on Friday after being deported from Saudi Arabia, police said.
Police declined to provide details of the arrests beyond saying the five were picked up in a Middle Eastern country and were sent back, in the custody of Sri Lankan police, from the Saudi city of Jeddah.
"These are the five remaining leaders of the April 21 terrorist group," police spokesman Ruwan Gunasekera told reporters.
