Sri Lanka landslide: Hopes fade for '100 buried'
Many houses were swallowed up by the mud
30 October 2014
Hopes are fading for victims of a landslide which may have buried more than 100 people in central Sri Lanka.
Hundreds of troops have been using heavy equipment to dig through tonnes
of mud that buried the tin-roofed homes of workers at a tea plantation.
It is still not clear how many people are trapped in the disaster which was caused by heavy rain.
The authorities have evacuated hundreds of people from nearby villages due to fears of fresh landslides.
