The intruders came after the electricity was switched off for the night for entire area as is now the practice due to fuel shortage. The inhabitants not identifying the intruders shouted “Thiefs, thiefs”. One of the intruders ran out and the inhabitants of the house saw that he ran away with a gun in hand.
The intruder who was now in the hands of the residents of the house tried to bite the hands of the people but neighbours arrived for assistance. Under light, people were able to identify the intruder as one of the soldiers from Division 513 of the Sri Lankan military at the Chunnakam camp. The soldier was handed over to the Chunnakam camp military chief who asked the people not make the incident into a big issue. Sri Lankan military stationed in Manipay and Chillalai areas have been accused of sexual harassment and attempted rape at night. The soldiers are entering the homes at night and are harassing women. In one home the soldiers when chased away left behind their clothes and military hat.
