(MENAFN- NewsIn.Asia) Sept 1 (NewsWire) – Information has come to light of a group that had provided the necessary assistance for the terrorist outfit involved in the 2019 Easter Sunday attacks to carry out the attack, the Archbishop of Colombo revealed.

His Eminence, Malcolm Cardinal Ranjith stated that they had received information that an individual or a group by the name of 'Abu Hindh' was behind the Easter Sunday Terror Attacks.

He further stated that when evidence on 'Abu Hindh' was disclosed, one of the five judges of the Presidential Commission had questioned the witness about that name.
