What happened to Thileepan

and

What happened to Mahaththaya and Kittu.

does any one know what happened to above people?


Looks like Velu is not just killing sinhalelse, he is killing tamils
too!

Gopalasamy Mahendrarajah alias Mahatthaya joined LTTE at the age
of 22 and was originally from Point Pedro area (unlike most other
LTTE leaders who were from VVT, the birth place of Prabhakaran alias
Suriya Thevan). Mahatthaya did a commendable job to rebuild LTTE
during early to mid 80s when Prabhakaran was hiding in safe houses
in Tamilnadu with the help of Indian authorities.

However, when Prabhakaran returned, Mahatthaya was appointed as the
commander of Vanni, whereas Sathasivam Krishnakumar alias Kittu (who
was from VVT) was appointed as the Commander of Jaffna (a position
that identified with international significance). However, months
before the Indian intervention of 1987, an unidentified man attacked
Kittu with a grenade which cost Kittu his right leg.

Being handicapped, Kittu was forced out of military arena, paving
the way for Mahatthaya to rose up in ranks with no obstacles. He
first became the commander of Jaffna and eventually became the
deputy leader of LTTE. As the military commander of Jaffna he fought
some fierce battles against IPKF, wining the hearts of Eelamists as
a military strategist.

As expected, his sudden popularity turned out to be something fatal
to him. It did raise some eyebrows of some LTTE leaders including
that of their supremo Suriya Thevan and his intelligence unit head
Shanmuganathan Sivasankar alias Pottu Amman. During the same period,
Kittu was killed during an attack carried out by Indians on the ship
he was traveling and Pottu Amman sustained serious injuries when the
vehicle he was traveling ran over a mine. Both these incidents were
promptly credited to Mahatthaya's account and as with many other
LTTE defectors, Mahatthaya too became a paid agent of RAW and got
involved in serious misappropriations of LTTE funds.

Eventually Mahatthaya surrendered to Pottu Amman and was executed
(in 1994) along with scores of his associates on charges of
conspiring to kill Suriya Thevan. Eliminating those who loyal to
Mahatthaya didn't stop there and another group of his followers were
summarily executed at a location close to Chavakachcheri.
