This was the first religious activity there attended by Hindu, Muslim, Catholic and Buddhist clergy, in addition to not less than 1,000 civilians.
The tearful participants offered floral tributes to remember their dead relatives.
In the meantime, military intelligence men in civilian clothing had mingled among the civilians and took photographs.
Despite an order obtained by police from the Mullaitivu magistrate to ban any remembrance of the war dead, many events to remember them took place in the Jaffna peninsula and the Wanni.
It was previously reported that the military intelligence similarly photographed and videoed the civilians who had been present to give evidence before the Rajapaksa regime appointed LLRC.
