( September 24, 2012, London - Zurich, Sri Lanka
Guardian) The truth can sometimes be like an inflated ball in the water.
Attempting to prevent the truth from come out is similar to trying to keep that
ball under water. Natural laws ensure it will come to the surface anyway. It is
only a matter of time.
Torture and other cruel activities by the Tamil Tigers
were also exposed in various ways by many people who were directly engaged with
the LTTE a few of years ago.
After the elimination of their leadership, the Tigers are
now scattered and the survivors of that movement have been forced to come to
terms with some truths about their organization that they undoubtedly find
unpalatable.
There are two main LTTE groups still active in Britain.
One is Thalamai Seyalakam headed by Vinayakan and other one is Anaithulaka
Seyalakam headed by Nediyawan, who is claiming its International Secretariat.
The two groups are currently engaging in a blame game against each other, in
regards to the post-war situation.
The “Karuppu” a magazine published by the office of
Nediyawan condemned one Srimaran, of the LTTE, stating that he betrayed them by
making a confession to British police that he was in-charge of torture in the
intelligence unit of the LTTE. It is a shocking story, revealing many details
about the internal workings of the LTTE.
The magazine quoted a British official who stated that,
“Srimaran has revealed how he engaged in amputating the tongues and limbs of
captured people from the enemy side, as well as those who were within the
organization.”
Meanwhile those who escaped to Europe from the LTTE
disclosed the truth and claimed political asylum there, claiming that they
engaged in notorious inhuman activities because of the absolute pressure from
the leadership.
Most of the kidnapped young boys and girls are dead, but
many of their family members are still alive and former LTTE cadres fear they
will seek revenge if they return to Sri Lanka. These LTTE veterans also claim
that some of the kidnapped youth conscripts surrendered to the Sri Lankan army and
were released after completing the rehabilitation process. They will also
attack them, if they can, so they cannot return Sri Lanka.
A source in Switzerland disclosed to the Sri Lanka
Guardian that some of the Tigers who fled Sri Lanka are suffering from trauma,
due to their inhuman practices at the time. Some of them are receiving medical
treatment.
“I shot many
people who opposed the LTTE even during the time that both parties signed the
Cease Fire Agreement,” a source told the Ilankainet, a Tamil medium website based
in Zurich.
“One day I shot and killed a man while pledging to me
that he was a father of three. I feel
mentally disturbed about the case and I am addicted to drugs to eliminate my
past horrifying scenario,” he further said.
