Today (14) marks the 1000th day since the bombing of Easter Sunday.
A prayer service was held at the Thewatta Lanka Apa Swami Du National Basilica this morning.
The service was presided over by His Eminence Malcolm Cardinal Ranjith Thero and was attended by the families of the victims of the bombings at the Kochchikade and Katuwapitiya churches as well as the injured.
The cardinal said that even though it was 1000 days since the Easter Sunday massacre, many powers were still trying to cover up the bombing.
However, the people of the country are now realizing the truth and trying to cover this up by pretending for various reasons, he says that the people will soon explode with more power than the bomb that exploded then.
The cardinal also emphasized that some leaders were trying to gain political advantage by blocking the passage of those who knew about the attack and were not going to prevent it.
