The Inshaf and Ilham had six other brothers and three sisters. They came across as moderate Muslims in their entourage. “We have known the family for decades and grew up with them,” says neighbor Zulker Nain. “Their parents had a leading role within the community and were greatly respected. We live in a residential area. It is one of the best places to live in Sri Lanka.”

Inshaf and Ilham

Inshaf lived with his wife and four children in a luxurious villa with six bedrooms and its own fitness room. The domain was owned by his brother-in-law Alawdeen.

The 38-year-old man led his own copper wire company. It is now suspected that the bombs were made at that location. Nine employees of that company were arrested.

Inshaf had told his wife that he had to go to Zambia for business. But she had to ‘keep strong’. “My brother-in-law is a psychopath,” Alawdeen says frankly. “He deserves to be punished in hell. He lived under my roof, but I have never noticed anything strange. Not once has he mentioned IS or shown an extremist vision.”

“He had everything: a good business, a sweet wife and four children’s treasures. Then why did he do something so terrible? My sister is devastated. He has put our family to shame. I dare not face anyone anymore.”
