    Bomb explosion targets Police bus in Colombo
    [TamilNet, Friday, 16 May 2008, 07:00 GMT]
    A three-wheeler fitted with a bomb rammed into a bus carrying riot control police, few hundred meters away from the Sri Lankan Presidential Secretariat, Friday noon, killing at least 6 police personnel and injuring around 90 people, including policemen. The explosion has taken place on Lotus Road inside the High Security area near Hilton Hotel.

    The police personnel were on their way to provide additional security as the swearing-in ceremony of the Eastern Province Chief Minister, postponed yesterday, was to take place as scheduled on Friday at 4:00 p.m.

    Sivanesathurai Chandrakanthan alias Pillaiyan, the de-facto leader of the paramilitary-cum-political party, the TMVP, was scheduled to be sworn in as the Chief Minister of the Eastern Province.
