The death of a coward
|
Body of LTTE chief Prabhakaran
|
V. Prabhakaran , the self claimed “sun god” who ordered tens and
thousands of Tamil youth to wear cyanide capsules around their necks and
asked them to commit suicide if captured, was found by Troops of the 53
Division on Tuesday.
Ironically, he was found with no cyanide capsule, but with his
Identity Card and the dog tag, as to prove his identity if he managed to
seek refuge with some unknown saviour. He was certainly not man enough
to fight a single battle against the Army. Instead, he tried to save his
life until the last moment. Not for a moment he wanted to commit
suicide, he tried to escape betraying his most loyal followers before a
soldier shot him down. We are not going to comment on how he died.
Simply, he was the lowliest of the cowards.
National Integration and Reconciliation Minister Vinayagamoorthi
Muralidharan, who once fought for the LTTE and former media spokesperson
of the outfit Daya Master, positively identified the body of Prabhakaran.
It is only K.Padmanadan, LTTE’s in- charge of cross border terrorism
and pro-terror media that continue to have hope on Prabhakaran’s life.
Minister Muralidharan after identifying the terror chief’s body
thanked the President and the Armed Forces for freeing the Tamil people
from the clutches of the megalomaniac. Daya Master said the villain’s
death would be a great relief to the people in the Vanni.
Indeed, heroic soldiers of the Army finally brought justice to 19
million Sri Lankan citizens who suffered most horrendous acts of
terrorism for three decades.
The mad man who sent thousands of child soldiers to battle, who
ordered his brain washed followers to kill thousands of men, women and
children in most abominable orgies of violence , and who spelt the most
implacable curse on the Tamil people is no more.
