The
fabrication of a news item that 11 persons including 9
students had been killed in a claymore mine attack by
Security Forces deep in tiger held area is a real fabrication
and was a prelude to the horrid terrorist act carried
out by tiger terrorists at Nugegoda last evening says
President of the Tamil United Liberation Front (TULF)
V. Anandasangaree in a press release.
Stating
that the claymore mine incident took place in a village
very close to the Killinochchi town that the forces can’t
even dream of reaching, Mr. Anandasangaree states, “Those
who were instrumental for this news to appear in the papers
had a clear motive for doing so. It is obviously to show
the International Community that the 2nd incident is retaliatory
to the first incident and also to justify it.”
Expressing
his deepest sympathies to the families of victims of both
incidents Mr. Anandasangaree appeals to the people to
keep calm without giving vent to their feelings and to
see to the safety of the minorities living in their midst.
Full
text of Mr. Anandasangaree’s press release:
Bomb
Blast at Nugegoda
“I
very strongly condemn the brutal attack on the innocent
civilians at the Nugegoda junction by the LTTE by exploding
a bomb which caused the death of 17 people and injured
over thirty five others. Brutality had so hardened in
their hearts that the LTTE will never reform themselves.
The news item that 11 persons including 9 students had
been killed in a claymore mine attack by the forces that
penetrated deeply into the LTTE held area is a real fabrication.
Reading this in the Tamil news paper this morning I felt
that this news is a prelude to some serious incident to
take place in the course of the day and as expected this
tragic incident had taken place at Nugegoda.
“The
claymore mine incident took place in a village which is
so close to the Kilinochchi town that the forces can’t
even dream of reaching that village and if what the paper
had said is true, the end of the LTTE is nearing.
“Those
who were instrumental for this news to appear in the papers
had a clear motive for doing so. It is obviously to show
the International Community that the 2nd incident is retaliatory
to the first incident and also to justify it.
“As
one who knows the Kilinochchi Electorate well, I am positively
sure that the forces could not have access to the village
where this tragedy took place. This area was a part of
the Kilinochchi Electorate before the Mullaitheevu Electorate
was created.
“While
condemning this cruel act, I express my deepest sympathies
to the families of the victims of both incidents and plead
with the people to keep calm without giving vent to their
feelings and to see to the safety of the minorities living
in their midst.
V.
Anandasangaree,
President – TULF. “
