Sundog,
Please do not flater yourself! If you want to believe whatever Sri Lankan meadia tells you; I wish you goodluck,
I knew Mr Gunanathan, here I post what you do not believe:
Source Tamilnet, but it is also a common knowledge in Ariyalai:
Gananathan's daughter, Thayananthy, 19-years-old, was killed on 07 August 1996, when a SLA truck rammed into a group of school girls.
On the same date, her schoolmate, Krishanthy Kumarasamy, was gang raped and killed by the SLA troopers, and her family members who went searching for their daughter were massacred.
Gananathan was one of the activists who worked for exposing Krishanthy's case. |

UNICEF records 5956 forced recruitments by the LTTE-SLUNA
UNICEF has recorded 5956 abductions carried out by the LTTE for forced recruitment between January 2002 and December 2006, with 1012 of these being children under the age of 15 years which is considered a war crime, stated the Sri Lankan United National Association of Canada(SLUNA), in its latest press release, on 27th January.
The association, a dedicated body in the Human Rights field internationally, revealed these stunning figures in its brief media release as a reply to the HRW report dated 24th January, 2007.
The full text of the press release follows.
We wish to state at the outset that we have applauded the previous research and reports of the Human Rights Watch organization on the mass scale abduction and child recruitment by the internationally designated terrorist group known as the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE), and their extortion of members of the Tamil Diaspora in Canada and other Western countries to launch their final war to establish their mono-ethnic Tamil separate state in the north and east of Sri Lanka. We have been most impressed by the fearlessness and genuine interest of the key members of HRW in safeguarding the human rights of all individuals and especially that of children who are more susceptible to abuse.
We have made a quick study of the 100 page report released on the 24th of January, 2007, and make haste to submit our observations on several aspects which we found to be lacking necessary proof, and in some instances contradictory or inconsistent.
Continued abduction of children by the LTTE:
UNICEF has recorded 5956 abductions carried out by the LTTE for forced recruitment between January 2002 and December 2006, with 1012 of these being children under the age of 15 years which is considered a war crime. In this case too if we were to apply the thinking of the HRW, the number of children abducted would be twice or three times
as much, as some families refrain from reporting such incidents for fear of reprisals by the LTTE. The SLMM having investigated the complaints of abductions, ruled that 1743 cases as CFA violations on the part of the LTTE.
The LTTE had earlier given a pledge to the UN Special Representative Olara Otunnu in 1998 to release all child soldiers in their ranks. They have disdainfully scorned the UN and totally ignored their undertaking to release the abducted children, which has finally spurred the UN in 2007 under the new Secretary General to introduce measures that would affect the leaders of this terrorist movement.
The LTTE had given similar pledges to UNICEF in 2001 and 2003, but none of which were honoured. The LTTE's supposed humanitarian wing called the TRO even received as much as 30 million rupees from UNICEF to set up half-way homes for rehabilitation of the released child conscripts, which project ended with a fraction of this sum being spent for shabby facilities with a larger) |

Thavachelvam,
This is very sad. We are lossing real peace lovers for LTTE terrorism. Thes people must be more carefull. And GOSL also should provide enough security for these people. This is an ugly face of war and terrorism!
In my eyes, both LTTE and GOSL are killers. Who do you think had killed Mr. Gunanathan? He was killed by those people who are being aided and abetted by GOSL! So, button up mister. |
