LTTE funding lines intact, says India’s National Security Adviser

New Delhi: The LTTE leadership may have been wiped out in a massive offensive by the Sri Lankan Army, but the threat from the dreaded terror outfit is far from over.

National Security adviser M.K. Narayanan on Monday warned that with the Tamil diaspora, which was the main source of funding for LTTE, spread far and wide, the threat of the outfit raising its head once again could not be ruled out.

Narayanan said that the funding lines of LTTE were still intact and there was always a possibility that disgruntled elements in the Tamil diaspora across the globe could get together to help the terror outfit regroup and rearm.

There was need to keep a watch for any such development and be prepared for any eventuality, he suggested.
