Colombo Fort Magistrate this morning issued a warrant for the arrested of Bodu Bala Sena General Secretary Galagoda Aththe Gnanasara Thera.

The warrant was issued on the Thera for failing to appear before the Court in relation to two cases filed against him.

Galagoda Aththe Gnanasara Thera is reportedly in hiding after four Police teams were appointed to arrest him for inciting communal violence.

Both the President and the Prime Minister have stood strongly against any form of communal disharmony in the country.
