Three children and two members of the Civil Defence Force were
also among the dead.

The tiny village of Karametiya where 17 families live is situated
some seven kilometers from the Bibile-Ampara main road and
borders the Ampara and Moneragala districts.

Police said the suspected LTTE cadres had stormed the village
firing indiscriminately at those inside houses and working in the
chenas.
Police said the group had even chased after the villagers who were
fleeing with their children and shooting them.

They said that after shooting the villagers the group had set fire to
the houses and planted “Johny” mines before leaving the area.

The area Samurdhi animator and Pradeshiya Sabha member T.M.
Ratnapala who were injured when they stepped on “Johny” mines
had been admitted to Ampara hospital. Mr. Ratnapala had stepped
on the mine when he had gone to inquire about the gunfire that
was heard from the village.

Twelve people had died on the spot from the gunfire and the rest
had died on admission to hospital, police said.

Police said the frightened villagers had moved to Iginiyagala for
security reasons.
Ampara Superintendent B.S.R. Wijendra and Senior
Superintendent N. Pathmadeva had gone to the village with a
special police team to provide security to the villagers and several
bunkers had been constructed in the village yesterday.

A cordon and search operation had been launched by the army,
police, STF and the civil defence force.
