Achilles,
what LTTE did by parading the prisoners was wrong! but belive me the relatives will be thankful since there is a good chance the GOSL will claim them as MIA.
chk this out
this is the way the GOSL treats its sailors. are you surprised. i am not.
Ranjani Swarnalatha Pitiyakumubura, wife of Indika Prasantha Pitiyakumbura who is in LTTE custody says that she came to know about her husband only through media.
?There was no response from the government so far but SLMM has told her no harm would be done to the sailors including her husband. Even the Navy has not contacted the family?, she added.
