Person suspected of creating fake emails inciting racial and religious violence arrested

A person suspected of creating fake emails inciting racial and religious violence was arrested this morning.

However, FICAC says it is suspected that there is an organized movement behind this scam and further investigations are underway.

FICAC says the fake email alleged that there would be terrorist attacks on 8th to 11th December 2022 targeting churches and temples and assault on some prominent politicians and businessmen.

FICAC requests the public to be vigilant of these types of organized criminal activities attempting to create instability during the election time.

They request the public to report such criminal activities to FICAC immediately.
