Sailor dies during Sri Lanka victory parade

May 19, 2013 (AFP) - Sri Lanka's navy Sunday recovered the body of a sailor who drowned during a parade marking the fourth anniversary of the defeat of Tamil Tiger rebels, an official said. The body was found near a beach in Colombo where his small boat capsized while taking part in the victory celebrations presided over by President Mahinda Rajapakse on Saturday.

"The boat was salvaged on Saturday and four crewmen were rescued, but one officer went missing and his body was recovered only this morning," a military official said on condition of anonymity, adding that the boat had got into trouble in choppy waters.

Rajapakse, who addressed troops at the land and sea parade, vowed not to allow the Tamil Tiger rebels or any other separatist group to create trouble in the ethnically dived nation of 20 million people.

His troops declared an end to 37 years of ethnic bloodshed after killing the top Tamil Tiger leadership in May 2009.

In the north the main opposition ethnic Tamil political party, the Tamil National Alliance (TNA), defied a military ban and staged a remembrance ceremony for those who died in the final battle which also killed Tigers leader Velupillai Prabhakaran.
