The Catholic Church yesterday (20) rejected statements made by MP Harin Fernando to the Presidential Commission of Inquiry (PCoI) probing Easter Sunday attacks.
The Archbishop’s House on Sunday charged that Samagi Jana Balawegaya (SJB) MP Harin Fernando was making baseless allegations against His Eminence Malcom Cardinal Ranjith.
“We wish to therefore condemn this puerile attempt of Mr. Fernando to find excuses for his own grave misdeed and cast unjustified and unfounded aspersions on His Eminence. We reiterate that we fully trust the Presidential Commission of Inquiry to render justice to the hundreds of innocent who lost their lives or maimed for life due to both the hateful actions of the terrorists and the shameful inaction of the political and administrative as well as intelligence officials of that time who are responsible for this mindless carnage of human beings. Justice must prevail at all costs,” the Archbishop’s House said in a statement.
The Archbishop’s House went on to assert that the Cardinal nor the Archdiocese of Colombo had any prior knowledge of the attacks.
“Once again, we affirm categorically that the Ccardinal and the Bishops as well as the Catholic clergy were in no way made aware of this plot by anyone and so the allegation is baseless.”Catholic Church rejects claim for Harin’s statement on Easter attacks
