(IANS)
Sri Lanka said Friday that its troops had captured the Catholic Church at Madhu in the northwestern district of Mannar from Tamil Tiger guerrillas.
'The Sri Lanka Army has liberated the sacred Madhu shrine by beating off the occupying LTTE terrorists. The soldiers reached the shrine as the terrorists beat a retreat unable to withstand the army advance,' the defence ministry said.
'At present, the troops are clearing the surroundings of the church as there is a strong possibility that the terrorists have booby trapped the church building,' the ministry said.
There was no immediate reaction from the LTTE. The Catholic Church at Madhu is one of Sri Lanka's most popular shrines.

Troops capture Madhu church from LTTEthe ltte terrorists have no respect for religion-any religion. They have killed hindu poosaris, slit the throats of muslims worshipping in mosques, machinegunned buddhist pilgrims and monks and only a few weeks ago killed a leading catholic father ,Jeyaraj Fernandopulle and top athletes in a targeted suicide bomb explosion.
However the Sri Lankan army and special forces(one of the best special forces commandos in the world) arenow giving ot to them and the situation should be under control by the end of the year. THIS IS VERY DIFEERENT TO THE IRA |
