They brought all kinds of valuables, including cash, gold, jewellery wrapped in cloth bundles and small bags as they fled,” he said, adding that ATMs have also been installed at these mobile banking units. The branches have also been authorised to receive foreign remittances and transfer money out. “Some money has also come in from abroad for inmates at the camp,” Mr Cabraal said.On Friday, President Mahinda Rajapaksa speaking to editors said that some of the people were seen drying the money at the welfare centres as they had crossed through the lagoon with the money in their possession. Meanwhile, the Commercial Bank became the first private bank to open a branch in the camp yesterday.Source :<a href="http://sundaytimes.lk/090607/News/sundaytimesnews_14.html" target="_blank">http://sundaytimes.lk/090607/News/sundaytimesnews_14.html</a>Are they really need help..?? once I heard they bought tomato killo for 500 rupees...  before army capturing this area Rice killo is 300 Rupees...  Need your comments... <img src="/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/default/happy.gif"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":)" title="Happy    :)" data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
