The government had send stocks of food, medicine and other essential items to have a buffer stock during the final months of the end battle against the LTTE, the former Mullaithivu Government Agent Emelda Sukumar said today.
Speaking at the international defence seminar organized by the Sri Lanka Army, she said that she was threatened by former political wing leader P. Thamilselvam not to send the monthly progress reports to the government as they would damage the image of the LTTE internationally.
Sukumar, who is presently the Jaffna GA, said the government continue to send cement stocks to the North knowing that the LTTE was building bunkers using those cement stocks.
Sukumar also said though the government allowed the civilians to come to the government control, the terrorists used them as a human shield.
She was the GA of Mullathivu for eight years under the LTTE control.
