LTTE must be told to spare innocent lives - Sangaree

Within two days of the assassination of Ms. Maheswary Velauthan of the EPDP the LTTE has once again shown its venom, this time in the heart of Colombo, President TULF, V. Anandasangaree said.

He said as usual Prabhakaran has selected an innocent family to carryout his terror tactics. Once again it is somebody else's brainwashed child, he had sacrificed without any protest either from the suicide-bomber's parents or from the TNA Members of Parliament.

"I am not asking the TNA Members to sacrifice their children. My only worry is as to why can't they lodge a strong protest against human sacrifices by the LTTE. I strongly condemn the LTTE for playing with human lives," Anandasangaree said.

Ten innocent people some of whom are police officers, died and over 85 were seriously injured in Friday's suicide attack in Colombo.

"How many more will die will not be known for a few days and by the time the exact figure is made known, more similar incidents would have taken place. Every time such an incident takes place more widows, orphans and destitutes are created" he said.

The international community should condemn these atrocious acts of the LTTE with one voice and warn them to stop playing with innocent human lives.

The Government too without further delay should come out with a reasonable and acceptable solution, not due to the fear of the LTTE but to enable the International Community to act positively.

The TULF expresses its deepest sympathies to the kith and kin and all relations and friends of the unfortunate victims.
