COLOMBO, Feb 20 (Reuters) - One of two Tamil Tiger aircraft that raided the Sri Lankan capital Colombo bombed a government tax building and set it on fire on Friday, the military said.

"One plane dropped a bomb at the Inland Revenue building in Fort, which resulted in a fire in the building," defence ministry spokesman Keheliya Rambukwella said.

He also said one plane had gone missing from radar while jets were pursuing the other northward. (Reporting by Ranga Sirilal; Writing by Bryson Hull; Editing by Kevin Liffey)
