A love story between former enemies
How a former Tamil Tiger soldier and Sinhalese Civil Defence recruit found love.

But ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Sinhala journalist Suneth Perera marked the anniversary with an unusual love story between former enemies: Gauri Malar, a former Tamil Tiger child soldier, and Roshan Jayathilake, a Sinhalese Civil Defence Force recruit.
