Fifteen persons were injured when a group of people from Pudhupatti village and Sri Lankan refugees clashed over a personal dispute near Batlagundu on Sunday night.

It was said that when some Sri Lankan refugees residing in Batlagundu threw liquor bottles on the premises of Sri Badrakaliamman temple, residents of Pudhupatti condemned their action and quarrelled with the refugees.

In a fit of anger, unidentified persons pelted stones on the Sri Lankan refugees.

Goodness are these the same people from TN that are committing suicide and screaming from roof tops about protecting Tamils??
Seems like the Sri ankan Tamils are unwanted in TN and much safer in Sri Lanka.
