Term of PSC on Easter attacks extended

The term of the Parliamentary Select Committee (PSC) probing into the Easter Sunday attacks has been extended till October 31st.

Meanwhile, President Maithripala Sirisena is set to appear before the Committee on Friday (20).

Parliament last month extended the term of the PSC till September 30th as the PSC had requested an extension in order to complete its inquiry and submit its final report to Parliament.

The PSC was appointed by a resolution passed unanimously by Parliament on May 22nd. The PSC’s term was originally only for a period of three months.
