The Pakistan High Commission based in Sri Lanka has come forward and is providing legal aid to all the arrested accused. The Pakistan High Commission in Colombo has been facing allegations of conspiracy against India in the past.

However, the court confiscated their mobile phones and passports until the case was concluded, Sources added. They came out on a three-wheeler then took photos of the Indian High Commission from their mobiles.

Indian security agencies are in touch with Colombo investigative agencies so that it can be found out whether there was any part of a bigger conspiracy behind taking photographs of the Indian High Commission.

In the basic interrogation, the arrested trio revealed that they came to Sri Lanka for mandatory quarantine for their onward travel to Saudi Arabia as direct flights between Pakistan and Saudi Arabia are currently not operating. They were staying in a hotel situated near the Indian High Commission.
