Sri Lanka discusses with DoJ on charges against accused in Easter Sunday bombings and actions of pro-LTTE organizations on US soil

News

Sri Lankan Ambassador to US Ravinatha Aryasinha had a virtual discussion with Mr. Dan Stigall, Deputy Chief of Staff & Counselor for International Affairs, Department of Justice (DoJ) and senior officials of the DoJ this week to follow-up on the charges filed last month by the U.S. District Court in Los Angeles against three Sri Lankans for "Conspiring to Provide Material Support to ISIS" in the Easter Sunday bombings in Sri Lanka in April 2019.

All three are currently in Sri Lanka's custody.

The Ambassador also called for closer monitoring of the pro-LTTE organizations operating in the US, who contrary to US laws, were glorifying terrorism and martyrdom, while propagating hate speech and disinformation, the Sri Lankan Embassy in Washington D.C said.
