LTTE Leader Inventor of Modern Suicide Bomber Killed

Posted on May 19, 2009 



LTTE Leader Inventor of Modern Suicide Bomber Killed. B. Muralidhar Reddy of The Hindu newspaper reports from inside the war zone. See also my old op-ed piece (written in 2003) published in Suara Karya newspaper on suicide bomber, motivation behind it and which organisation ever did it the most :

The curtains came down on the 33-month-long Eelam War IV as the Sri Lankan military in the early hours of Monday decimated the military capabilities of the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam, resulting in the death of at least 18 top leaders, presumably including the outfit’s chief Velupillai Prabakaran, in an intense battle that lasted nearly 22 hours.

The military commanders on the ground are unable to officially confirm the death of Prabakaran as they have not been able to trace him or his body in the continuing combing operations. They believe that a body burnt beyond recognition recovered from the battle zone could be that of Prabakaran.

This correspondent, the only foreign print journalist present inside the war zone, accompanied the top commanders as the bodies of the LTTE brass were brought in tractors by the soldiers for identification.

The bodies positively identified by the military included that of Charles Anthony, elder son of Prabakaran; the Tiger intelligence wing chief, Pottu Amman; the political wing head, B. Nadesan; and S. Pulithevan, in-charge of the Tigers’ peace secretariat.
