Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison has confirmed one of the suicide bombers involved in bombings in Sri Lanka that killed more than 350 people on Easter Sunday spent time in Australia.
The prime minister said the man had not been granted another visa after leaving Australia more than six years ago.
"I can confirm that the suicide bomber had been in Australia. They departed in early 2013. That individual had been here on a student and a graduate skilled visa," Mr Morrison told reporters in Townsville yesterday.
Former Chairman of SriLankan Airlines, Nishantha Wickramasinghe, arrested on allegation of corruption by the Commission to Investigate Allegations of Bribery or Corruption (CIABOC) has been remanded until July 1 by the Colombo Magistrate court.
