Public Vigilance Prevent LTTE Massacre Attempt

One more LTTE attempt to execute carnage targeting innocent civilians gathered at the public fair near the ANURADHAPURA new bus stand was averted today (10) morning due to prompt actions taken by civilians now vigilant on terrorist activities.

Having seen a suspicious unattended plastic container, which later proved to be an Improvised Explosive Device (IED) with a timer, people brought it to the notice of a sailor proceeding on his leave who safely defused the IED containing about 1 kg of explosives.

The ANURADHAPURA Police are conducting further investigations.
