    Looks ominous. Signs of return of terrorism to Sri Lanka, not surprising that the foreign run NGOs, UNP and Ranil in particular have been giving oxygen to tamil terrorists lately. Search, find and destroy these vermins before they strike.

    Sources of information these days are questionable. Half truth and deception in the media does not help.

    The usual hate crime commenters in this column above suspects that these are tamils doing it in Lacktowatta in Wanathawilluwa. you fools believe that tamils can do this in the hard core sinhal town of Lacktowatta in Wanathawilluwa? This is clearly shows the biased comments in this column.
