People in Jaffna were in for a great surprise the other day when they saw their mild-mannered soft spoken governing one of the province dressed in Police uniform giving orders to his Police subordinates seated opposite a leading hotel.
Some people were openly wondering whether the governing one had got into the Police uniform to convey a special message to the people at a time tensions were rising high in the North due to sporadic acts of violence being committed by a gang of ex-LTTE cadres.
