Abdul Cader Fatima Hadiya, wife of Mohammed Zahran, the leader of the National Thowheed Jama’ath organisation and the suicide bomber who attacked the Shangri-La hotel in Colombo on Easter Sunday, made a secret statement yesterday before the Colombo Fort Magistrate.

She made this statement when the post-mortem examination of the two suicide bombers at the Shangri-La Hotel, Mohammed Zahran and Mohammed Ibrahim Ilham Ahmed, was held before the Colombo Fort Magistrate Ranga Dissanayake.

Fatima Hadiya has made the confession for over an hour in the official room of Magistrate Ranga Dissanayake.

Zahran’s wife and her four-year-old daughter were taken to court amid tight security.

The Criminal Investigation Department (CID) also produced Yusuf Mohammed Ibrahim, the father of the other suicide bomber Mohammed Ibrahim Ilham, and his brothers Mohammed Ibrahim Iflal Ahmed and Mohammed Ibrahim Ismail Ahmed, before the Magistrate to provide evidence at the post-mortem examination.

The case will be taken up again on 19 August.
