Many Tamil intellectuals and main stream Tamil
political leaders were assassinated by the terror outfit accusing them
of collaborating with the SL government for seeking peaceful solutions
to the internal disturbance situation in the island.
The graceful Sri Lankan diplomat and former Foreign
Minister Lakshman Kadirgamar was assassinated by the LTTE terrorists on
12th August, 2005. TNA Jaffna parliamentarian Nataraja Raviraj and Tamil
intellectual Keetheshwaran Loganathan was also gruesomely murdered by
the LTTE assassins respectively on 08th and 12th August last year.
These Tamil leaders were killed because they were
perceived as pro-India and Tamils who did not care threats of the LTTE.
Moreover, both LTTE chief Prabakaran and his deputy,
Pottu Amman, are proclaimed offenders wanted under Indian criminal law
for the assassination of Rajiv Gandhi.--comments-->4--217--5
