" We are piling up bodies outside the hospital "

“The wave would have sucked homes and people back into the sea. Few could have resisted its force. We think that whole areas have been buried under sand dug up by the wave’s power.......the hospital mortuary is full. We are piling up bodies outside the hospital” - Dr. M. Baghavan, Kalmunai Base Hospital
