Army denies pro-LTTE report

The Army yesterday denied an online pro-LTTE propaganda report of a ‘terrorist attack on a military convoy’ last Thursday as killing five personnel while injuring a senior officer.

According to a pro-terrorist online portal, a military convoy had come under a possible ‘LTTE terrorist attack’ deep inside the Habarana jungle enclave. A spokesman for the Army said the story was a complete fabrication and no such incident had taken place.

Defence observers said this was another fabrication of LTTE propagandists irked by the magnitude of development and economic progress in the North and the East.
