In Sri Lanka, night curfew has been imposed in several areas of southern Galle district due to a tense situation existing there. <br/><br/>The curfew was imposed last night following clashes between two communities but was relaxed during day time. <br/><br/>Several people were injured while some houses had also been damaged. Police has arrested at least 19 people suspected of inciting violence.<br/><br/>Over 200 police officers and 100 officers from the Special Task Force had been deployed following the violence. <br/><br/>Law and Order Minister Sagala Ratnayaka said some political groups are desperately trying to turn the minor brawl into a Sinhala-Muslim clash and urged the public not to be misled by false propaganda. <br/><br/>Authorities said they were keen to avoid a repeat of violence seen in June 2014 when four people were killed and several injured in clashes between the two communities in the same region.
