(September 19, Colombo, Sri Lanka Guardian) The video clip below presented with this news will confirm the transformation of one time buddy of the LTTE leader Velupillai Pirabakaran to a drunken singer of Sinhala baila songs.

Karuna’s transformation has been rapid since he severed his links with the LTTE. Past six years have been very testing time for him and his fishing expedition has finally landed him as a Sinhala singer and dancing minister of the President Mahinda Rajapakse’s rule.

When Kauna left the LTTE, he was nowhere to turn. He crossed over to India and aligned with ENDLF lead by Paranthan Rajan. Soon he left the group and lived a private life with his wife and children. He wanted his children to do well and sent his wife and children to the UK. He then moved to Sri Lanka form his hideout in India and formed the TMVP with the Chief Minister of Eastern Province Pillayan.

During this time with the help of the Defence Secretary Gotabaya Rajapakse, Karuna entered the UK with a false diplomatic passport issued in Colombo. He was soon caught and sentenced to six months imprisonment in the UK and thereafter deported to Sri Lanka.

The government’s dirty tricks department played its due role break the TMVP on his return. Karuna soon became a minister and one of the joint Secretaries of the President’s party SLFP.

With the ministerial job came about lots bounties. Liquor and attractive women completely alienated Karuna from the cause he stood for and also distanced him from the Tamil people.

He soon abandoned his wife and children to enjoy the extensive luxuries provided by the government. His marriage irretrievably broke down and according to information Karuna is adopting a ‘I don’t care’ attitude towards his family members.

He attempted to destroy the political life of Pillayan, but could not do so. Since his appointment as minister in the new government, Karuna has gone further to enjoy the bounties offered to him by the government.

It was reported, he was found drunk and crawling on the floor at a reception of a foreign mission is Colombo recently. With his new ministerial job, he is said to be attending public functions with his guitar.

He went one step further in the bending process to appease his leader Mahinda Rajapakse to become a Sinhala musician.

Karuna must be having a lot actions wrapped in his sleeves. Will it be his public music and dance with his Manike holding a bottle of Mendis Old Arrack will be the next? Or will it be a dance with Mahinda or his brother gota? We are all waiting to see.

Karuna and Misnister Mervin Silva will keep the hilarious part of the government going whilst the Dirty Tricks Department will carry on with its dirtier tricks camouflaged by the maverick goons.
