Booby-trapped taxi explodes in Sri Lanka

Sept 8, 2006 (AFP) - Suspected Tamil Tiger rebels placed a body in a booby-trapped taxi that exploded Friday in northern Sri Lanka, wounding six people, police said. The blast occurred in the town of Vavuniya, 255 kilometres (160 miles) north of the capital Colombo, with a police officer and four school children among the injured, a police official said.

"We were alerted to the abandoned taxi by another man who escaped from the Tigers yesterday," the official said. "We were suspicious of the vehicle and as we got near, the vehicle exploded."

The dead man placed in the three-wheel taxi had been abducted on Thursday, police said.

Officials blamed the rebel Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) for the attack.
