The police today prevented an attempt by two Northern Provincial Council members to commemorate slain LTTE members by lighting camphor at the Council’s main entrance.

NPC member M.K. Shiwajilingam and Ananthi Shashidaran had attempted to light camphor at the entrance of the closed building in Jaffna. Mrs. Shashidaran’s husband -Elleen was a slain LTTE leader.

Meanwhile the Chairman of the NPC said the members had not taken his approval for lighting camphor.
