Tamil lawmaker's home attacked, 2 soldiers killed
2006-07-23
Unidentified assailants fired two rocket-propelled grenades into the home of an ethnic Tamil lawmaker in Sri Lanka's volatile east, but the legislator and his family escaped unhurt, police said on Saturday. Separately, a roadside bomb killed two Sri Lankan soldiers and wounded two others in northern Jaffna on Saturday the latest attack blamed by the military on separatist Tamil Tiger rebels. The victims were on a road-clearing patrol when the bomb exploded, military spokesman Brig Prasad Samarasinghe said, blaming the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam for the blast.
