Colombo: Two days after the deadly Sri Lankan blasts, a video has been released of suspected suicide bomber. The man is seen carrying a backpack and walking into St Sebastian church on Easter Sunday.

The Islamic State has claimed responsibility for coordinated bombings in Sri Lanka which killed 321 people and injured about 500 others, the group’s AMAQ news agency said on Tuesday.

On Tuesday, Sri Lanka has placed all police stations in Colombo on high alert as police were hunting for an unidentified container truck and a van, believed to be carrying explosives.
