The "grease  devil" is a name given by locals to men who go around with grease on  their body abusing women.Jaffna security forces commander Major General Mahinda Hathurusinghe  said the mob had thrown stones at the police after claiming that the  police was giving refuge to a suspect.The police were unable to control the situation, which forced the  army to intervene and disperse the violent mob, Hathurusinghe told  Xinhua.Several violent incidents had taken place around Sri Lanka over the  past few weeks following alleged sight of so called grease devils.The Sri Lankan police however rubbished the existence of " grease  devils" and instead said it is simply the work of some miscreants.A Tamil newspaper published in Jaffna said that locals had attacked  military vehicles in the area on Monday night during the clash.The Uthayan newspaper website also said that the Sri Lankan army had  forced its way into civilian houses to arrest those involved in the  clash. Hathurusinghe said that those who were arrested will be produced in court on Tuesday.Xinhua</blockquote>
