Two killed in landslide

Two adults were buried alive and two children seriously injured when their house was buried in a land slide at Galekele in Ududummbara on Wednesday night around 10.00 p.m.

The sliding earth from the hill dragged the house and a boutique down to a distance of 15 meters, Ududumbara Police said.

The deceased were identified as Selvathamby Mahendra (43) and his wife Kanagamma (40). Their injured children Sivakumaran (11) and Wijendran (8) were hospitalized.
