Grenade attack on Tamil Tiger office

The grenade was tossed into a Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) office in the northern town of Mannar on Saturday evening, a report on the rebel's website Tamilnet.com said.

A civilian was killed and two people, including a LTTE political worker, were injured.

Six people were meanwhile wounded in Jaffna, further north, when security forces and protesters clashed at a demonstration to condemn the killing Monday of a senior rebel leader and his colleagues by attackers in military uniforms.
