Cardinal confronts Police to reveal truth behind bomb discovered in Church in Borella (VIDEO)

Date:

His Eminence Malcolm Cardinal Ranjith, the Archbishop of Colombo, expressed his suspicions over the bomb discovered in a church in Borella, in what he described as a possible ‘plot to intimidate’ the Catholic Church, speaking to a briefing held in Colombo today (13).

Pointing out that the Police’s conduct towards the chain of events is also suspicious, the Cardinal added that the ‘unknown figure’ appeared in the Church in the morning of the incident as revealed in the CCTV footage must be disclosed.

Innocent people like the cleaning man and caretaker of the Church, who was arrested in connection with the bomb recovery, should not be hunted down in a situation like this and the truth should be uncovered, the Cardinal emphasised.

He went on saying that police officers shall be honest not bidding the will of politicians, confronting that they should be leaving their posts if they are unable to stand up for the truth.
