by Manjula Fernando
LTTE political wing leader S. P. Thamilselvan and six
other LTTE members will be flown to Colombo today in an Air Force copter
to leave on a tour of scandinavian and EU countries to canvass support
for the proposed tsunami relief joint mechanism, diplomatic sources
said. LTTE leaders P. Nadesan, I. Pararajasingham (Para), LTTE Peace
Secretariat Chief S. Pulidevan, Thamilselvan and three others are in the
team.
They are expected to begin their tour from Norway and
travel to Switzerland, Sweden, Denmark, and several EU countries, the
sources revealed. LTTE spokesman Daya Master confirmed the tour, but
declined to reveal the countries the team will be visiting or when they
will return to the country citing security reasons.
The organisation's theoretician Anton Balasingham is
also expected to join the team. |
