First your donkeys shot at commercial flights TWICE, now even trying to hit a satellite? What kind of moron mistakes a satellite for a plane. Secondly given how small and high up it would seem, what kind of utter moron would even bother to try and shoot at it???

So please wait for the next great `Velu has escaped` story, only problem is going to be the punch line for your morons, since he isn`t even trying to run away :)

The Defence establishment yesterday said that investigations into what was earlier believed to be a suspicious aircraft over the skies of Mullaitivu seen on Tuesday night is now believed to have been a low orbit satellite.

Air Force Spokesperson Wing Commander Janaka Nanayakkara at a media briefing held yesterday said that an Air Force aircraft which was flying at a high altitude on Tuesday night had spotted lights at around 8 p.m. in the skies of Vishvamadu along with Naval craft who had also spotted the lights in the skies.

However, both the Aircraft and the Navy who were both unable to verify immediately whether it was a suspicious aircraft said later the lights had not emanated from a suspicious aircraft.

According to the Wing Commander, both naval and the Air Force radars had also not detected a suspicious aircraft and the only aircraft it had detected was that of the Air Force which was flying in a rehearsal in the northern skies.
