The Sri Lanka Monitoring Mission (SLMM), on October 1, demanded immediate access for Monitors and humanitarian agencies to the seven government soldiers detained by the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) and the release of one of them on humanitarian grounds. The state-run Daily News said, on October 2, SLMM Chief Maj Gen (Retd) Trond Furuhovde made these demands when he met with LTTE political-wing leaders in Trincomalee. "The SLMM Chief visited the area where the soldiers were taken into custody and analysed the maps of the Security Forces and LTTE held areas," SLMM Spokesman Teitur Torkelsson said. He added, "There are different claims by both sides. The maps seem to be overlapping." The SLMM also said it had reason to believe that the LTTE would not reject its demand. Besides, reports said the LTTE would release the soldier and another as soon as two LTTE cadres in government detention are set free on bail.

Reports from pro-Tamil sources said unidentified persons burnt down two shops owned by Tamils, in Pottuvil, Ampara district, on October 30. The shops are located just 500m away from the Kanchirankuda Special Task Force (STF) camp. The damage caused was an estimated SLR three hundred and fifty thousand, reports claimed. One of the victims of the arson accused the STF of having a role in the incident. He said, "My daughter has joined the [Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam] LTTE. Since then Kanchirankuda STF personnel (have) been monitoring my activities with suspicion… STF personnel told me to make a complaint to the SLMM [Sri Lanka Monitoring Mission] stating that the LTTE had forcibly conscripted my daughter. I told them that my daughter joined the LTTE voluntarily. From then onwards STF personnel when buying goods from my shop sometimes do not pay for the goods." Local Tamil National Alliance (TNA) Member of Parliament Chandra Nehru reportedly visited the site and made representations to the SLMM and police.
