Elite cops capture LTTE's 'JANAK' camp

The Special Task Force (STF) captured another LTTE camp known as 'JANAK' in KANCHIJUDICHCHARU in the AMPARA district killing at least 4 tiger terrorists this morning (11)

LTTE cadres had launched mortar attacks from the 'JANAK' camp at STF personnel deployed around the 'STANLY' base captured by the Special Task Force last Monday (08).The newly overrun 'JANAK' camp is situated west of 'STANLY' base. The 'STANLY' base was the LTTE's biggest camp situated in the AMPARA district. The capture of LTTE's 'STANLY' and the 'JANAK' camps is a strategic step forward in eliminating the terrorist threat on security forces camps in the East.

According to the STF, a large factory where uniforms were stitched for LTTE cadres had been situated inside the 'JANAK' camp. Mortar cycles and other vehicles had also been recovered from within the camp.

Two STF personnel sustained injuries in the confrontation.

More details will follow.
