The government imposed a state of emergency on March 6, blocked popular social networks, saying that they are used to spread deceptive rumours that led to attacks.

Some Buddhist radicals also protest against the presence of Muslims Rohingya in the country – refugees from Burma, where the group has been persecuted in recent months under the guise of the fight against terrorism.

– At a special government meeting, the decision was made to introduce emergency condition for 10 days to prevent the spread of riots into other parts of the country – said government spokesman Dayasiri Jayasekara.
