Infantrymen of 11 Sri Lanka Light Infantry (11 SLLI) operating under 582 Brigade captured a well fortified LTTE camp located south of Piramanthalkulam last morning. Troops sweeping down the A-35 road (Paranthan - Mullaittivu) on west-east axis came across the LTTE camp located north of the 12th milepost around 11.20 AM. Troops captured the camp after beating off the terrorist in a pitched battle and found 9 bodies of LTTE cadres with an assortment of weapons. Two T-56 riffles, one M-16 Light Machine Gun (LMG) built in the USA, and nine USA made TIPPMAN A-5 air riffles were among the weapons found. Also, troops found a fully air-conditioned bunker built underground in the camp premises. Meanwhile , infantrymen of 6 Gamunu Watch (6GW) maneuvering towards Challai lagoon captured a highly fortified LTTE camp located in the jungle , east of Puliyampokkanal on the same morning.
