    Then Jaffna.Now Kataragama. Police personal must be properly trained to use the fire arms....to fire below the knee level...

    With these types of weapons, it is impossible to target tires of a moving vehicle or the extremities of a rider. .

    Train them to fire below knee level? They have deliberately shot at the head.
