The statement comes after the Sri Lankan authorities announced that they had decided to reimpose a curfew as the country continues to recover from Easter Sunday's deadly bombings, which killed nearly 300 people across the country, local media reported.

The country launched a massive security operation and introduced an initial curfew immediately following the series of bombings that hit the South Asian nation on 21 April.

The curfew, which ended at 6:00 a.m. local time (00:30 GMT) on Monday, was reset to start at 8:00 p.m. (14:30 GMT) on Monday and end at 4:00 a.m. on Tuesday (22:30 GMT on Monday), the News 1st portal reported, citing the Department of Government Information.
