COLOMBO (News1st): The extremists behind last year’s April 21 attacks bombed Sri Lanka due to a change of mind after initially targeting India, MP S.B. Dissanayake has said.

“…they noticed that there is no proper security in Sri Lanka and that they could do something,” the Sri Lanka Podujana Peramuna parliamentarian opined.

He said he believes that the individuals involved in last year’s bombings had not intended to carry out the attacks in Sri Lanka.
