COLOMBO, Sri Lanka: Catholic services are being canceled for a second weekend in Sri Lanka’s capital after the government warned of more possible attacks by the same Daesh-linked group that carried out Easter suicide bombings.
Rev. Edmund Tillakaratne, spokesman for the Colombo diocese, said Thursday that Cardinal Malcolm Ranjith had canceled all Sunday services in the diocese based on the latest security reports.
