Sri Lankan security personnel look on as they stand guard at a checkpoint on a roadside in Colombo on May 13, 2019. - AFP: Mobs slashed to death a Sri Lankan Muslim man despite a nationwide curfew imposed Monday night after anti-Muslim riots spread to three districts north of the capital in a violent backlash against Easter suicide bombings.
“Police and security forces have contained the situation, but these groups are still trying to create trouble.” Police said there were sporadic incidents of mobs throwing stones and torching shops, motorcycles and cars owned by Muslims. In the town of Hettipola, at least three shops were torched. A state of emergency has been in place since the bombings - which the Islamic State group claims to have helped - and security forces have been given sweeping powers to detain suspects.

Muslim refugees now feel safer in non-Muslim countries, says Dr MThe prime minister says this is not because of Islam as a religion but because some Muslims push aside the teachings of Islam. Very2 true...very2 true.. The high exodus of Muslims migrating to western countries, the high rate of Muslims going as refugees to western countries are testament to Tun's statement. Most Muslims prefer 'kafir' countries, as how some call it in Msia. The Intelligence on Sri Lankan church bombings has revealed how the network of hate preachers, returning ISIS terrorists from Syria and illegal funds from Middle East, India & Malaysia was responsible. Please YB Tun Mahathir, get our PDRM to monitor activities in M’sia 🙏.
