Swiss Tamils attack LTTE front office: urge immediate release of civilians in Mullaittivu

The LTTE front office in Switzerland was surrounded and pelted with stones by a group of Tamil protestors a few hours ago today (Feb 6) urging the immediate release of the civilians held as a human shield by the LTTE in Mullaittivu. The group of Swiss Tamils led a protest in the morning hours, also accusing the LTTE terrorist outfit solely responsible for the plight of the Tamil youth in Wanni.

"LTTE is no longer the liberators; they are the true cause for the unprecedented suffering of our brethren. Our children are dragged from schools, women turned into human bombs and elderly forced to an 'essential arms training' what they (LTTE) define as a 'self defence' training", a protestor was quoted as saying.

The attack at the LTTE office was reported subsequent to a demonstration which was organized by the Swiss Tamils to show solidarity towards the people held by LTTE at Mullaittivu, Swiss news sources reported.
