Despite the repeated warnings from the UN and the international community, the abduction of children, in the North and East, by the LTTE has escalated during the past few days.
In the most recent case, three teenage girls were abducted at Erakkandy, Kuchchaveli when they were on their way to a church on Monday (1). The parish priest of the church was forced to look on helplessly while the three girls were being abducted.
The LTTE had also abducted and held 7 Muslims from Mutur, Tricomalee and demanded 10,000 rupees for their release. The seven men were released after the `ransom` money was paid.
The three teenage girls were identified as M.Renu Fareena (17), Valeuttu Erakkandy and P.Nilani (17). All three lived in the area. They were abducted by two LTTE cadres but the priest could not do anything but look on helplessly, Military Spokesman Brigadier R.M.D.Ratnayake said.
Reports from the north said, in the third week of July, the LTTE had abducted three teenage boys. Two of the boys were aged 13 and the other 15. They were identified as T.Madan and T.Judan of Market Road and M.Baskaran (15) from the Andankulam area of Chenkalady. All three children were attending school and the parents and next kin of these students had been threatened by the LTTE not to report the abductions, the spokesman said.
But the parents of the abducted girls had complained to the Kuchchaveli police about an hour after the abductions.
In another case, the LTTE aducted Felix M. Christian (15) a school boy of Murunkan, Christopher Vanaraj (14) of Kaluwankerni, Eravur who were both living in a refugee camp after the tsunami disaster. The two boys had gone out of the camp on Monday and were not seen after that. The residents believe they were abducted by the LTTE.
The spokesman said all these abductions have been reported to the SLMM.[Island]

Ho Ho.. a handful of kids no need to discuss???? Hand fuls at a time make a ton at the end of the year. Children know nothing. Easily brain washed and can put forward to protect 'big bellies' of LTTE. Adults are fed up of LTTE. People are frustrated. To feed LTTE, innocent people pay enormous amount of tax. Price of essential items ( eg:a loaf of bread, kerosine etc) in NE area is unbearably high. Why??? it is LTTE taxing to feed their bellies. People in NE want to live in harmony they need better future rather than working under the fear of death threat by LTTE. During past, how many occasions parents and children protested against LTTE? Now they openly show their disgusting, condemning feelings towards LTTEs behaviour. How many cadres are running away from LTTE???
No more adult people are willing to obey LTTE. So they have to abduct children!
Drug smuggling is a good respectable business eh!! |

Dear all
i agree with ajans post,it is nothing more than a bluff of gosl and epdp or eprlf.
ltte have formed a wing to have scouds in every districts.
those underage children who want to join scouds are welcome and they will get trained to perform simple task like team work,communication,cooperation,coordinatin and a bit of physical training.
the unicef is well aware of this formation recently took place and are happy to encourage these activities.
for example if a under age child want to join the ltte,the ltte will have to send them to scouds training and keep the child with his/her parents.
so it is time the gosl pack this lies and invent some thing new.
thank you |

LTTE is a very respectable Terrorist group that follows norms and ethics to the very letter of such agreements.These are all GOSL propaganda?
LTTE sympathisers, you all must writr like above always and at all times some thing comes against LTTE to satisfy the avathar.Otherwise your lives are in danger?
Now the Tamil parents are protesting OPENLY.Have these parents been protesting under the influence of GOSL?
Pl write some thing sensible that any one can accept.Always denying and blaming the GOSL will jeorpodize the credibility of lTTE and its followers very badly.
Man, accept the atrocities of LTTE even for the Tamils in N & E like gentlemen, if you all are! |

Jay-r, you are 100% correct!
LTTLE is the most humble, legal terrorist oragnization of gentle men and women who abide by and work according to UN, Human rights and everything in the world. GOSL is the one making NE a hell then???????
Let them write these jokes. They have never being to NE. They have to vomit LTTE if they swallow LTTE money!
They should sing LTTE if they are fed on LTTE!
They have to do this because LTTE bullet is behind them!
What they are doing is for their living we should sympathize them. |

Ajan,
With respect my friend, you are getting this all wrong. In the process you are causing much damage to many of your arguements which I quite admire and enjoy reading. You know as much as I do, the LTTE actually recruits child soldiers. Government does not have to fabricate that story.
Apart from its comic nature, this arguement of yours is in all likelyhood a figment of your imagination. Even if we are to go by your second paragraph in which you claim that kids voluntarily join the LTTE, as responsible adults shouldnt they discourage them joining a movement which uses live amunition? Shouldnt they tell them to go and play with other children like kids normally do? Shouldnt they give them toys instead of guns? Even if they are 'voluntary soldiers' isnt that robbing their childhood. Do you honestly believe LTTE is recruiting them so that kids will not commit suicide?
Ajan, your arguements usually have some point. And as always I admire your sense of loyalty to your community. But this time (quite unusually) you are being desperate and making a feeble excuse.
Take it easy my friend. |

Itis very sad that at the expense of the innocent Tamil children,the LTTE higher ups are trying to reach at their goal of EALAM which will be a HELL for all independently thinking Tamils.Since 1983, how many Tamil leaders oposing LTTE were gunned down by the LTTE? In a battle SLA may have killed a large number of LTTE soldiers,but 1 Tamil killed by the LTTE is equivalent to 1000 deaths in the warfront, because LTTE have been killing their own Tamils.
Can such a movement achieve their goals? Those living in foreign countries having their children education in those countries donate money to LTTE to recruit innocent Tamil children by force for the LTTE army for their existance.THIS IS A BIGGEST CRIME ANY NATIONAL CAN DO THEM.
Shameless people. |
