Lanka issues alert on bomber

 
The Sri Lanka Terrorist Investigation Division(TID) has urgently sought public cooperation to provide any information to help arrest the female suicide bomber, Abdul Shalam Fatima Yasmin, an official statement said.

The alert said the female suicide bomber has been frequenting the commercial hub of Pettah, which has witnessed incidents of such bombings in the past. The police has also flashed the photograph of Yasim showing her attired in a saree with her head covered.
During the intensive war with LTTE in November last year, a wary Sri Lankan police had cautioned the public against LTTE female suicide bombers disguising themselves as harmless looking pregnant women, beggars or old women roaming the streets of Colombo.
