Suicide bomber strikes again
By Nirupama Subramanian
COLOMBO, JUNE 14. A suicide bomber of the LTTE killed himself and
two others and wounded seven, while attempting to ram an Air
Force bus in a northern suburb of the capital today.
Police said the human bomb had intended to attack the bus at a
busy junction in Wattala, 10 km from here. But he missed his
target when a cycle got in his way, with the detonation killing
the cyclist and a woman. Several others were wounded and some
vehicles damaged. The windscreen of the bus got shattered. A
Government statement said the bus occupants were not injured.
