The police this afternoon forcefully removed a group of monks who were on hunger strike in Fort demanding the release of General Sarath Fonseka. The police also removed the temporary sheds used by the monks for their protest.

The police also harassed journalists covering the incident. A Colombo Court later told the police to submit a report on the whole incident involving the monks by tomorrow. (LS)
