LTTE suspect in Australia `would do anything asked`
Friday, 13 July 2007 - 9:10 PM SL Time

A MELBOURNE man accused of supporting Sri-Lanka`s Tamil Tigers rebel group boasted he carried arms and would do anything the movement asked of him, a court has been told.
Aruran Vinayagamoorthy, 33, of Mt Waverley, and Sivarajah Yathavan, 36, of Vermont South, are charged with terrorism offences for supporting separatist group Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam, or Tamil Tigers.

The men appeared in the Victorian Supreme Court today for their third bail application, each charged with being members of a terrorist organisation, providing support or resources to a terrorist organisation and making funds available to a terrorist organisation.

The men allegedly used the Melbourne-based Tamil Co-ordination Committee to raise funds for the Tamil Tigers under the guise of fundraising for tsunami relief.

Commonwealth prosecutor Mark Dean SC told the court Vinayagamoorthy was a senior leader of the Tamil Tigers in Australia.

In a phone conversation recorded by authorities he allegedly said: `As for me I carry arms ? I don`t have to worry about anything. I will do anything, whatever the movement asks me.`

Vinayagamoorthy spent $97,000 on 3500 electronic transmitters between September 2003 and October 2005, the court heard.

Between 2005 and 2006 he bought about 70 remote control explosive devices similar to ones used in terrorism attacks in Sri Lanka.

Yatahavan and another alleged senior leader of the Tamil Tigers in Australia Jeya Kumar ? who has since died ? bought 185 hydraulic steering units for over $126,000, Mr Dean said.

The units were bought between October 1997 and 2000 and were similar to those used by Tamil Tigers members to launch attacks against the Sri Lankan navy.

The court was told Vinayagamoorthy deposited $526,000 into his bank account between August 2001 and November 2005, during which time he appeared to be jobless.

Most of that money was withdrawn in cash and 24 international fund transfers totalling $240,000 were made into Malaysian bank accounts.

Mr Dean argued the money could then have been funnelled to support the Tamil Tigers activities in Sri Lanka.

The hearing before Justice Bernard Bongiorno continues.

This is the brain-washed nature of many LTTE supporters. 'They would do anything they were asked'.

Stop! Think! Act! Correct your Actions through Feedback!

The above does not apply to when you are brainwashed.

LTTE made the lives of all the Sri Lankan a misery for 30 years.

Now at least if the foreign governments stop their funding, this menance can be stopped. Else, all the Sri Lankans will suffer this menance for another generation.

Hats off to Australia for their noble deeds!

This is the australian legal system. If it is SL, chief justice can make any decision favourable to GOSL. Otherwise, white van service for these people.

Oh at least he admits that he would do anything for the rebels, unlike our LNP terrorist supporters, just persisting to be keyboard warriors.

Act:

Hey chinthanya::

what the heck are you talking abt?? You having a sinhala handle pritending to be sinhala and betraying SriLanka while praising LTTE TERRORISTS only make you a pathetic anotehr brainless LTTE TERRORISTS supporter.

You comfortabaly and ignoranty say 'its the Australian legal system' so whats the big deal in your point??

We also say 'yes its the Australian legal system' and now you gons pay the price for which you have been toiling hard for decades.

you pathetic moron: just change your 'handle' name in to any DEVIL name you like, but just avoid using any sinhala name handle jsut to show your pathetic style of DEVIL LTTE.

ALL THESE LTTE TERRORISTS NOW UNDER CUSTODY IN AUSTRALIA, MUST BE EXECUTED WITHOUT WASTING MUCH TIME, TO SET AN EXAMPLE TO REMAINING LTTE DEVILS AROUND THE WORLD.

Yes thank you for proving my point, Sinhala terrorists can't even run a fake country gifted to them by the British, such animals are the ones who have brought down decent Sinhalese and the Tamil people too, its ok though, we have our own people who can speak the same language now, been giving you dialogue for several years now, enjoy.
