Residents of a town in Vavuniya held a demonstration on Sunday calling for the removal of an army camp, following the death of a local woman caused by the camp's electrified fence.
55 year old Kanthasamy Rajeswari who lived in the property neighbouring the army camp in Adappankulam was fatally electrocuted while gathering vegetables close to the fence.
A protest was held outside the army camp on the day of Ms Rajeswari's funeral.
The Officer in Charge of the Adappankulam camp has reportedly been arrested in connection with the incident.
