The claim made by Senior Additional Solicitor General Haripriya Jayasundera PC regarding a "grand conspiracy" in connection with the Easter Sunday attacks was dismissed. Jayasundera asserted that none of the accused showed remorse and continued to uphold their dangerous ideology. The senior official highlighted the religious mindset of the accused, emphasizing their ongoing threat to society.

Naufer Mohammad Ibrahim Mohamad Naufer, also known as Naufer Maulavi, was sentenced to 220 years in prison for his role in the Easter Sunday carnage, which took place on April 26, 2019. The attack resulted in the deaths of 15 people and injuries to over 500 others. Initially cleared, Maulavi was apprehended a few days after the incident following information from a hotel staff member in Dambulla.

He was taken into custody in the first week of May 2019. The accused were found guilty in the Colombo Trial-at-Bar, and 17 of the 25 accused died in custody. The US Justice Department also identified Maulavi as a conspirator in the ISIS plot, though some believed Zahran Hashim to be the mastermind. The controversy surrounding the claim of a grand conspiracy made by outgoing Attorney General Dappula de Livera PC ahead of his retirement remains uninvestigated.
