Heavily shackled and donning the usual prison garb, Basnayake Keith Spencer arrived at 3pm in an unmarked police vehicle.

Flanked by four officers at all times, he showed the investigators where he sat in St Joseph's Church during mass on Nov 9 while allegedly in possession of five weapons.

Father Lee was attacked with a folding knife during the parish's monthly children's mass.
