A total four propaganda offices belonging to the opposition’s common candidate General (retd.) Sarath Fonseka was put to the torch in separate incidents at Hambantota last night.

The attacks which were carried out by suspected pro-government goons were carried out in the villages of Wettiya Handiya, Hungama, Ranagodamune, Barawakkumbura and Abeysekeragama all in the Hambantota district, Mr. Rohana Hettiarachchi with the monitoring group PAFFREL said.

In one incident the raiders had also threatened the occupants at gun point and shot into the air before leaving the scene, he said.

According to Mr. Hettiarachchi the south has witnessed the largest number of poll-related incidents since campaigning began with at least a dozen cases reported from Matara and Galle.
