COLOMBO, Feb. 12 (Xinhuanet) -- One person was killed and two others were
injured on Saturday when a Tamil Tiger political office located in a northern
Sri Lankan came under attack, police said.
The Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) office at Mannar, 330 km from the
capital Colombo, came under a grenade attack at around 8 p.m. local time (1400
GMT) Saturday.
A group of people who had come in a three-wheeled taxi had flung a grenade,
killing a civilian and causing injuries to two LTTE members. No one has claimed
responsibility for the attack.
The LTTE is plagued by the internecine clashes ever since its once powerful
eastern commander Karuna broke ranks with them in March last year. Enditem
