'LTTE's warning to Tamil media personnel condemned'

COLOMBO: The National Media Movement in a release yesterday condemned the LTTE warning to Tamil state media personnel to resign. In the same breath it condemned the attack on the Udayan Office and the attack on Army and Police personnel who provided security to it.

The media release said such threats to media was an awful attack on the civilized society.

The Movement urged the academic and civil society activists who value media freedom to understand the motive behind this conspiracy and pioneer the cause to defeat that goal.
