N. B. Ambanwala told The Island yesterday (21). He said interviews were being held in Monaragala to recruit persons for the National Defence Force but declined to comment on the number to be recruited for security reasons. A villager of Telambugolla, who had taken his gun out and started shooting in all directions, shouting that terrorists had come to the village, was arrested by the police yesterday, he said.
