twenty thirty y thank you very muchch for beingng with us. sri lanka is saying that the islamic state g group m may bee behind t the easter sunday atrocities a death tollsls now poss. three hundred the country's president has announced the heads of the defense forces are to be sacked the failing to prevent. attacks they've always been the clandestine rules of the data in taking place. so these are the latest images coming in from sri lanka. adding to the sadness of the shock of of this weekend's attacks. in kenya joins us n now should i could project directotor of the international crisis group on the thank you very much for being with us. and out what's your reaction to the news about these commanders them being. relieved of their duties over the security lapse [inaudible]

well -- it was certainly someone needs to take responsibility. for the complete guide negligence and underer a responsibilityty of and to act n multiple warnings. of these attacks whether that should be the people in the police the army intelligence agencies or more likely the politicians. that remains to be seen but i'm what almost never happens we lock our politicians actually themselves accepting responsibility in resigning. were that to happen it might make some difference. and in terms of keeping show like a safe. from another attack. it sounds like from what you're saying the correct steps are being taken yet. well i will havee to let you see exactly what the steps are in anand who is who is being you signed it was being fired exactly. i don't have the details. but i think there's going to be a lot of skepticism -- as long as those in. and the top remain and refused to take any real responsibility

anand simply say why didn't know and the other guy says i didn't know i'm it's going to be hard. first we all consuming the field anything meal has changed. soso i think there's a growingn. i'm some starting out so you ca. grow me. the politics of denial as you point. the way forward -- in terms of this idea that the islamic state group was behind this atrocity gee do you feel is any truth in that'll is is one of these. kind of false claims the kind of boost their a myth. well there was some doubt i think initially and i think there's some reason still. to await time final certainty but it does seem there's him you know the statements and the videos and the pictures they released -- with details of who was at which attack. i certainly the those who know more about prices than than i who i've spoken to believe. that that is fairly credible -- exactly what the relationship was what forms of communication

training s support between. his wings and isis in other countries and those attackers in stronger that remains to be clarified. but there does seem increasingly strong evidence that there was a lilink and they were doing it in the name of isis and according to an ideology that's consistent with axes. we know how security files to see that happen in attacks in the states and in europe. and here in front of course -- the fact this is happening sri lanka --- perhaps doesn't come s a surprise to some observers. do you feel. ththat the mechanisms will alrey that to have full to have stopped -- what happened was sri lanka per pad was it a question of a communication breakdown you think? well it appears to be i'm yeah it appears to be. a difficulty in. taking information and doing something with it and whether that's a question of you know not having. not knowing who's actctually in charge of making decisions -- or some other problem i think that that remains to be seen just took to be sorted d out hopefuly

will be -- i mean therere needso be a proper i investigation of proper inquire into what happeneded unfortunately. not because history is rife with in enquiring ease that either lead nowhere or that produce some good results and then never acted upon so calling for an independent investigation of this since rock as a bit of a joke because it never never adds up to anything. but i mean in ideal world there would be really get to the bottom of this and hire the right people and support those who are competent. there's never i don't think been a question about the technical competency of of this rock and police and intelligence servivi. i mean. we've seen recently in investigating some very high profile crimes committed under the former government. the the c. id of the police has done excellent work tracking down -- you know they they theyy have friends it capabilities there very competent so it strikes me that is more about -- bureaucratic incompetence and possibly -- the at this basic.

albubum of a deep and hatred tht the presesident has four is the prime minister and his wing of the government and the refusal - to to fully engage him in information sharing process. i thought it's a situation that it actually reinforces the depth and scale of this tragedy alan keenan -- sri lanka project director of the international crisis group thank you so very much for joining us here. on front so i can share your analysis -- with us we will keep watching will development say injured like what is a day of mourning -- where the dead are being buried and of course the morning i will contitinue for my days yet? staying should i get and negombo is one of the few christian majority towns the insured i kind of course as well one of these attacks that took place one of the three judges that we had -- was that 65% of the city's population -- identify themselves as bebeing of f the n catholic faith. one sunday this community took the worst hate the deadly series of attacks that took place. and todayy a day of national mourning a correspondent ascendd
