TID arrests 'Rajan' senior LTTE leader



'Rajan' recently, said DIG Nimal Wakishta, head of TID in Colombo Division.
He made this comment at a press briefing held at MCNS yesterday 28 Jan.
He further said that Rajan was one of key supporters of LTTE and engaged in supplying of weaponry, military hardware, vehicles and other necessities to the LTTE, locally and internationally.
The coordinated and clandestine operations conducted by the Ministry of Defence and intelligent agencies were vital to arrest him, he added. He further said Rajan involved in taking a bomb lorry to "Sama Viharaya" Kotahena in 1996.
During the peace negotiations he had visited to Vanni and met Prabakaran and exchanged information with Tamil exiles who actively supported the LTTE. He went on to say that "though the LTTE had been wiped out from the country its activists like Rajan may still have the hope of restoring lost Elam in this country". Therefore he requested the public to be vigilant of such people.
