12 killed LTTE suicide attack in Vavuniya


LTTE continues with its sucide attack and today it was in Vavuniya. In the attack 12 police personnel including 3 woman police constables were killed and over 20 others have suffered injuries when a motorbike ridding LTTE suicide cadre blew himself in front of the Senior Superintendent of Police office complex in Vavuniya this morning.

The suspected LTTE attacker reported to have arrived in a motor bicycle and the explosion had occurred around 7.10 this morning. The attacker had targeted Police personnel leaving the SSP office to various duty points, according to Defence sources.

A total of 23 people were admitted to the general hospital at Vavuniya, including 19 Police personnel and 4 civilians, the Defence sources said. A school girl is also among the victims who suffered injuries, hospital sources further said.

"The LTTE targeted both the police and civilians by carrying out this attack on the main road," military spokesman Udaya Nanayakkara said by telephone from the capital, Colombo. The blast came "when a change of duty took place."

The nice thing about a suicide bomber is that they are only good for one try. Then they are no longer a threat, just a mess on some random sidewalk.

A death of any person is not something to rejoice about or make fun of.
