A spokesperson for BRISLA told this website: "We would like to express our sadness at the terrible tragedy in Sri Lanka during the holy Easter Sunday. We would like to extend our deepest sympathies and condolences to all those affected; worshippers of Christian faith during the holy Easter weekend, and individuals and families – both local and from overseas, who lost their lives. Our thoughts are also with the unfortunate members of all communities who were injured and who experienced this terrible scene.

"It is now more important than ever to highlight the objectives that BRISLA promotes in unity with diversity. Moving forward, it is imperative that all of us from diverse origins – of all faiths and none, as members of our shared humanity, come together to advance the spirit of peace, seeking to coexist in harmony".
