TULF condemns 'LTTE's brutal and cowardly act'

Condemning the claymore attack in Okkampitiya that took the lives of 26 people and injured over 60 others last morning, V. Anandasangaree, President of the Tamil United Liberation Front, state in a media release it was a 'brutal and cowardly act' perpetrated by the LTTE.

He also said that 'it is high time that the LTTE stop killing innocent civilians which is not going to serve any purpose other than infuriating the International Community, which is fast losing patience'.

Mr. Anandasangaree pointed out that there should be no place for ferocious animals in human society.

"I have more than once found fault with the media, particularly the Tamil media all over the world for their failure to condemn these ruthless activities of the LTTE. Their failure to do so, in one way amounts to encouraging the LTTE to terrorise the civilians more and more. Some human rights activists too make the same mistake. I call upon all people whichever community they belong to, the media, human rights organizations and heads of all political partieis, including the TNA to condemn this ruthless act and to urge the LTTE to spare the innocent village folks who depend on each other in their family for survival."
