Sri Lankan military ‘thrills’ Jaffna Tamils


The Sri Lankan army organised a “mega musical extravaganza” in Jaffna to “strengthen the cordial relations prevailing between the Army and the civilians”, reports an official military website.

The event saw the Commander of the Sri Lankan Security Forces in Jaffna Major General Mahesh Senanayka honoured as the chief guest, as he strolled along a red carpet to enter the Jaffna Municipal Grounds for the show last Saturday.

Meanwhile a band from the Sinhala south played songs to “entertain thousands of civilians who cried in joy” according to the Civil Military Coordination Jaffna website.

Sri Lanka’s 51 Division of the Security Forces Jaffna organised the whole event, with several other military, police and government officials invited as guests.
