Anuradhapura Acting Magistrate Amarasena Hettige today ordered the Computer Emergency Readiness Team (CERT) to submit a detailed report on a video statement by Iron Ranasinghe alias 'SF Loku'.

Ranasinghe, the main suspect in the Wasantha Soyza murder, released a video statement to Facebook after the attack on a nightclub in Anuradhapura.

In this statement, Ranasinghe said that he had a personal grudge with Wasantha Soyza, the owner of the night club in Anuradhapura. However, he said that he wanted only to destroy the club, and not to murder Soyza.
