Media reports from the capital Colombo said clashes occurred between Sinhala and Muslim communities on October 30. These resulted in the death of a Muslim and injuries to 12 more. A curfew was immediately clamped on the area and subsequently lifted. Meanwhile, even as the government and Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) sat down for the second round of peace negotiations, on October 31, in Thailand, clashes recurred between the two communities and curfew was re-imposed. The clashes on the second day were reported while mourners were taking out the funeral procession of the person killed on October 30. In these clashes, a Buddhist monk was attacked, besides a Muslim wounded when police opened fire to disperse the crowd. A high-level security meeting was held in Colombo, on October 31, to assess the situation and was presided over by Prime Minister Ranil Wickremasinghe. Minister Tilak Marapone, Interior Minister John Amaratunge, the Inspector General of Police, Minister Mohamed Maharoof and top officials of the three armed forces attended the meeting. President Chandrika Kumaratunga, meanwhile appealed to people to stay calm and maintain peace. "There are people with selfish motives trying to incite the public. I appeal to you to remain calm and not be deceived by such rumours", Kumaratunga said in a statement, on October 31. She further said, "Any clash or conflict which has ethnic or religious undertones is an obstacle to national unity and progress. It is essential that we maintain a peaceful environment in and around Colombo, which is our Commercial Capital, inhabited by people of different communities and religions".
