Only 11 year old Munidasa (standing) lives to tell about the tragedy that befell this family which was trapped in a landslide in Morathiya on Christmas Day. The whole family visited a studio in Kurunegala and sat for this group photograph on December 24th. The next day Munidasa says he heard a sound like thunder and ran when the earth came down burying his father, mother, his two sisters and three brothers.
