56 ex-LTTE cadres handed over to parents after rehabilitation


Another batch of ex-LTTE members, totaling 56, who had undergone rehabilitation have been handed over to their parents.
Many of them had quit the terrorist organization at the height of the humanitarian operation to liberate the Wanni and surrendered to the security forces. The government launched a programme to rehabilitate them so they have better prospects for their future. They underwent rehabilitation at the Nawasenapura Rehabilitation Centre at Welikande.
They were handed over to their parents after a period of one year in a ceremony presided over by Major Gen. R.M.D. Ratnayake, the Commissioner General of Rehabilitation.
