India has provided Sri Lanka phone numbers of five Sri Lankans who were suspected to be linked to Islamic State (IS).

The Indian Express reported that India has also shared call logs and details of some phone calls which happened between some Indians and two Sri Lankan families who were linked to Easter Sunday attacks which happened on 21 April in Sri Lanka. 

A team from National Investigation Agency (NIA) conducted investigations in Sri Lanka last week. They have revealed information about several Sri Lankans who had direct connections and communicated with some Indians who were suspected to be Islamic State terrorists through social media. 

Indian Ministry of Home Affairs further added that it is unknown whether these people are directly connected to the Easter Sunday attacks in Sri Lanka.
