Prabha’s secrets dug out

By Damith Wickremesekara

The slain LTTE Chief Velupillai Prabhakaran’s plans for suicide attacks, arms purchases and measures to develop the movement are outlined in vital documents found by the police at Vellamullivaikkal in the Mullaitivu district, a top official said yesterday.

Colombo Crime Division Superintendent Vass Gunawardena said the documents in some 272 files were found buried underground in barrels. The detection was made after information was given to the CCD by a close associate who worked with the LTTE leader for more than ten years.

Sources of funding for the organization, details of bank transactions, information on purchase of weapons, details of transfer of weapons including names of ships, country of origin and the ship routes were given in the documents.

They are being carefully studied by the Defence Ministry and intelligence officials. CCD chief Anura Senanayaka said they hoped to unearth more vital documents of the LTTE soon.
