A
suicide bombing inside the main military headquarters here 'critically
ounded' Sri Lanka's army chief Lieutenant General Sarath Fonseka and
killed five of his bodyguards, officials said. Fonseka's convoy was
targeted as it drove past the army hospital well within the high security

car on motocycles were killed on the spot,' a police official said, adding
that more than a dozen were wounded. 'There are casualties but the fate of
the commander is not known yet,' police chief Chandra Fernando told Agence
