Sri Lankan police have filed a false report at the Vavuniya Magistrate Court, alleging that activists associated with the Tamil National People's Front (TNPF) intimidated and attacked the police. This incident is related to the memorial float organised by the TNPF to commemorate the death of Thiyagi Thileepan, which began its journey around the North-East on September 15th, the 36th anniversary of Thileepan's fast.
