Lanka says sorry for evicting Tamils

A Sri Lankan Tamil man displays a receipt on June 9 received from the police after they confiscated his national identity card, apparently to prevent him from moving about in the capital Colombo where he has been living for seven months. Life for ordinary Tamils in Colombo is getting worse -- with the community caught in the middle of a once again escalating ethnic war between the island's Sinhalese-dominated authorities and Tamil Tiger rebels.
