Sri Lankan authorities were warned more than two weeks before the devastating attacks that killed at least 290 — and even had names of suspects, officials admitted Monday.
“Fourteen days before these incidents occurred, we had been informed about these incidents,” cabinet spokesman Rajitha Senaratne told a press conference, according to The Guardian.
In fact, the first warning from international intelligence agencies came even earlier, on April 4 — 17 days before the attack, Senaratne confirmed.
