The remains of an LTTE fighter, alongside their uniform and identification tag were uncovered in Muhumalai this week, as demining work continued in the region.
The findings were made in the region of the former Muhamalai Forward Defence Line, an area that saw intense battles between the LTTE and Sri Lankan security forces.

It comes more than 12 years since the end of the armed conflict, which saw tens of thousands of civilians killed by intense Sri Lankan bombardment.

Earlier this week, more skeletal remains were found in Palai.
Similar findings have been made over the years, though the Sri Lankan military maintains a large presence across the region.
