SRI Lankan Prime Minister Dissanayake Jayaratne visited the explosion site of the eastern police station yesterday in the company of the Chinese Ambassador Yang Xiuping, an embassy official said.
Jayaratne, who is also the acting defense minister, and Yang traveled in the same helicopter to the blast at the Karadiyanaru police station, about 300 kilometers from the capital Colombo.
The ambassador expressed her shock and concern over the blast, which killed two Chinese nationals.
The military said the explosion occurred when the two Chinese nationals arrived to take some explosives from one of the three explosives-laden containers which were kept at the Karadiyanaru police station for safety.
One container carrying the explosives exploded and triggered the explosion of the next two containers, the military said.
