The main Opposition Samagi Jana Balawegaya (SJB) on January 3 urged the Government to summon Parliament immediately to discuss the burning problems people were beset with, reports The Island. Addressing the media at the Opposition Leader’s Office in Colombo, Chief Opposition Whip Kandy District SJB MP Lakshman Kiriella said Parliament should be summoned without further delay as the country was facing massive foreign reserve crisis. “The government is trying to sell off national assets. Between 15 and 20 lands in Colombo are up for sale. Seven acres of prime land in Bogambara playground is to be sold. The government is trying to sell the Trincomalee oil tank farm. The agreements are to be signed while Parliament is closed. We need parliament open to debate the country’s problems,” Kiriella said. Read less...

The main suspect involved in setting up a hand grenade inside the All-Saints’ Church in Borella of Colombo District was identified on January 12 as a 56-year-old who was associated with the church for nearly 16 years, reports Ada Derana. Following the discovery of the explosive material at around 4.40 p.m. on January 11, four suspects in total were taken into custody over the incident. According to the Police spokesman SSP Nihal Thalduwa, the hand grenade had been placed using sellotape, matchsticks, and incense sticks for it to catch fire and explode. Investigations have uncovered that the suspects had used a 13-year-old boy, who resides close to the church and frequents the premises, to place the hand grenade inside the church. Reportedly, the main suspect had been serving the church and residing at the premises over the past nine months.

Whilst rejecting the information revealed by the Police on the recovering of a hand grenade at All Saints Church Borella in Colombo District on January 11, Archbishop of Colombo His Eminence Cardinal Malclom Ranjith at a press conference on January 13 called for a transparent probe on the incident, reports Daily Mirror. Cardinal Ranjith said “Police only viewed the CCTV footage in the church for some reason. The Sanchristian (caretaker) of the church was arrested only by viewing the video clips which were recorded after 3:00 pm on that day. I requested the parish priest to view the video clips recorded the whole day. It is revealed by the CCTV footage that a suspicious man enters the church and keeps something on the ground. Then he wears the traditional ‘sign of the cross’ which is a religious tradition practiced by the Catholics when entering the church and worshiping. However, this person does it in the wrong way. It could be concluded that through this man's action, he was not a catholic. Also, this person came in limping and when going back from the church he was walking in a stable manner. In such circumstances, we appeal to the police to conduct a proper investigation. One should not wear the uniforms if he cannot do his job in a proper manner.” Read less...
