Pulidevan arrested on Prabhakaran's orders?

Seevaratnam Pulidevan, the Director of LTTE peace secretariat in Killinochchi, has been arrested by the LTTE intelligent services, headed by Chief Pottu Amman, according to sources from the Thamil Broadcasting Corporation (TBC), a London-based media outlet.

According to TBC, Pulidevan has been accused of providing vital information to Government intelligent services regarding the movement and whereabouts of key figures of the LTTE hierarchy.

According to the Sri Lanka Guardian, London, the agency which first reported this story, there had been strong speculation that information provided by S Pulidevan had led to the killing of SP Thamilselvan, then chief of the LTTE's political wing. It is also believed that the killings of Lt. Col. Kalaialagan, who was responsible for the international co-ordination, and the intelligent deputy Charles was a direct result of the information provided by S Pulidevan. He is also being held responsible for the recent air force attacks in Wanni targeting the main cadres of LTTE.

The funeral of Balraj, senior member of the LTTE, was attended by all key figures of the LTTE hierarchy, including Prabhakaran, Intelligent Chief Pottu Amman, Political Chief Nadesan and head of the navy Soosai and Balakumaran and Pulidevan's absences has been a matter of surprise to political analysts. His absence has increased speculation regarding his arrest, according to the report.
