Four suspects who believed to be close associates of National Thowheed Jamaath Leader Zahadan Hashim were arrested in Kalmunai yesterday.

They are suspected to be organizers of the National Thowheed Jamaath organization in the Kalmunai area.

One of the suspects had reported helped Zaharan find safe houses for terrorist activists in the Eastern province. They had also coordinated the work of the National Thowheed Jamaath organization which has been banned following the Easter Sunday explosions.

Further investigations are underway to ascertain whether the suspects have a direct connection with the Easter Sunday explosions.
