The Muslim scholarly clergy group, All Ceylon Jammiyathul Ulama (ACJU) yesterday requested that the contents of the book ‘Sri Lanka’s Easter Sunday Massacre’ published by Dr. Rohan Gunaratna to be re-examined, the errors to be corrected, and republished with authentic facts and to ensure that the undistorted, unbiased, accurate information is communicated to the people.
ACJU Acting President Ash Sheikh A.J Abdul Khaliq and General Secretary Ash Shaikh M. Arkam Nooramith in a statement said: “We request everyone to refrain from falsely accusing the Muslim community or the ACJU in relation to the tragic Easter Attacks on the basis of baseless and false claims. It is observed that the Muslim Community and ACJU have been continuously criticized citing baseless false allegations mentioned in the book named ‘Sri Lanka’s Easter Sunday Massacre’ published by Dr. Rohan Gunaratna.
On the 25th of September, we expressed our disapproval and condemnation to the author of this book by a letter detailing the efforts carried out by the ACJU and the Muslim civil society organisations of this country, towards the preservation of the security and peace of our Motherland.
We have also requested that the contents of the said book be re-examined, the errors to be corrected, and republished with authentic facts and to ensure that the undistorted, unbiased, accurate information is communicated to the people.
Therefore, we request everyone to refrain from falsely accusing the Muslim community or the ACJU in relation to the tragic Easter Attacks on the basis of baseless and false claims.
