The Colombo High Court Trial-at-Bar has rejected a request by former Inspector General of Police Pujith Jayasundara to include additional information in the statement he previously made from the dock in connection with the Easter Sunday terror attacks case.

The request was taken up before a three-judge bench comprising Justices Priyantha Liyanage, Viraj Weerasuriya, and Thilakaratne Bandara. After considering the submission, the bench declined to grant permission for the inclusion of new details.

Pujith Jayasundara is currently facing multiple charges, including allegations of criminal negligence for failing to prevent the Easter Sunday attacks, despite receiving prior intelligence warnings indicating the possibility of an imminent threat.

The case is part of ongoing legal proceedings examining accountability over the coordinated bombings that shook Sri Lanka in 2019, resulting in significant loss of life and widespread devastation.
