Karuna fits into GOSL's condom theory.
Earlier Karuna Amman was Govt. s best friend.In order to protect the life of Karuna Amman from Prabhakaran, the Govt. sent Karuna to the United Kingdom on a forged passport made for him.. Later , he was made a Parliamentary member via the National list. He was also made a Minister and appointed as the SLFP Vice President . When Prabhakaran died , it was Karuna who assisted the Govt. to identify the body of Prabhakaran. The Govt. also enlisted the support of Karuna to launch verbal assaults on India and Norway . Karuna was made to speak about how India helped the Tamil Tigers in the eighties , and the manner in which Norway helped Tamil Tigers in 2002 during the peace negotiations. Indeed, Karuna was Govt. s brightest star in its galaxy at that time. But , after the war was over and Prabhakaran was killed , Karuna s star was on the descent. .
At the last General elections when the Govt. pressurized Karuna to contest the Eastern province PC elections , Karuna was reluctant and refused the offer. In case Karuna had contested he would have faced a humiliating defeat . |
