COLOMBO, 9 January 2007 — In view of the current security situation, Sri Lanka has imposed a ban on the import of remote control toys to the island, a senior official of the Sri Lankan Customs told Arab News yesterday. “Sri Lankan expatriates living abroad and foreign visitors will not be allowed to bring in remote control toy helicopters and airplanes through the Colombo International Airport,” the custom official said, pointing out that some of these toys are being used by terrorists in claymore mine attacks against the government soldiers and civilians.
