Sinhalese and Tamils were preparing for the New Year, a convoy of vehicles transporting passengers to their homes for the holidays from Tricomalee to the South and in the opposite direction, were stopped by armed cadres of LTTE wearing a large number in uniforms. The incident took place between the 123 and 129 mileposts on the Trinco-Habarana Road at a deserted place known as Kitulotuwa. The passengers were ordered out and lined up first. They were next relieved of their valuables and were dragged out and shot them to death with automatic weapons, after brutally assaulting with clubs. 107 civilians killed on the spot including men, women and children. Those who hid in fear in the buses were also killed by the LTTE with only very few managing to escape by playing dead among the bodies of other passengers. Some security personnel who were traveling to their homes after taking festival leaves were among the dead. More than 70 people with serious injuries were air-lifted. The dead included many children and 12 off duty security personnel. A total of 127 passengers were killed while 64 others were injured by this attack, whom were travelling by three buses, two lorries and a private car. Most of the victims were families visiting their homes and relatives for the New Year.

However, the home-guards engaged the attackers and they retreated with their wounded. The government troops launched a massive hunt for the killers of these attacks, who were led by an area leader of the LTTE known as Pulendran. The LTTE went on to kill over 225 civilians during April, 1987 in Polonnaruwa and Trincomalee area alone as they massacred more civilians in Ambagaswewa, Meegaswewa and Kadawathamaduwa.
