Nearly 10,000 Muslims in Puttalam have held a protest against the IS terrorism today (17).

The protest held at the Colombo Face lagoon in Puttalam was joined by Mayor of Puttalam K.A. Bayis.

The Muslims in the area, following the Jummah prayers at mosques, have marched to the lagoon and protested against IS terrorism in Sri Lanka, a country that has dealt a massive blow owing to a 30-year war.
