central district of Kurunegala Friday morning. China's official Xinhua news agency
quoted security sources as saying that the bomb explosion happened around 7 a.m.
local time at Udawalpola, about 100 km northeast of Colombo. Twelve school children
and the van driver were injured. Kurunegala police said the driver had just started
the vehicle when the bomb went off inside the garage of a local resident. They
said a personal dispute might be behind the explosion. This was the first major
explosion after the government troops defeated Tamil Tiger rebels in May and further
investigations are underway,Malaysia's Bernama news agency reported. |
