Five LTTE Leaders killed including Third in line in Sea tiger wing


Sri Lankan Army artillery attacks killed LTTE Third in line in sea tiger wing Vinayagam & four other leaders in Chalai Mullaittivu today (05), spokesmen of the Media Center for National Security said.

LTTE in order to prevent the entry of troops into the north of Chalai have been mounting artillery attacks, but the troops responded with the same fire-power effectively, killing LTTE�s top-rung leaders, Vinayagam alias Mike-4, Pagalavan, Cader, Sinnakannan, Annavelan and at least a dozen more cadres, the Army Headquarters confirmed.
Vinayagam alias Mike-4, of the LTTE Sea Tiger wing was the third in rank order after Soosai, the Sea Tiger wing chief. He has served more than 25 years in the LTTE and flown to Norway in the year 2004 in search of more and more funds for the LTTE cadres killing machine.

Pagalavan, serving the Sea Tiger wing for more than 15 years has remained one of the close confidantes of the LTTE leader, Prabhakaran. A native from Puthukudirippu and Mullaittivu areas was also the brainchild behind the attempted attack on the troop carrier, Jetliner vessel when it was sailing into the Trincomalee harbor sometime back. Pagalavan was also responsible for masterminding a series of Sea Tiger attacks on naval troops and other attacks on ground troops after 2004.

Cader, a Sea Tiger some 15 years back became a leading Tiger strategist cum fighter after 2005 to take part in ground offensives against the troops. He was also the LTTE political leader for Vadamarachchi north in the year 2005.

Meanwhile, Sinnakannan, a so-called �Lieutenant Colonel� in the LTTE and another senior LTTE cadre, identified as Annavelan were felled by Vijayabahu Infantry troops in the 55 Division area, led by Colonel Mahinda Weerasooriya on Wednesday (4) while the troops were smashing LTTE strongholds in the north of Chalai. Troops also confirmed at least 10 more experienced LTTE cadres perished during those attacks. Subsequent searches bagged one Multi Purpose Machine Gun, one Rocket Propeller Grenade, thousands of ammunition rounds, twenty hand grenades, parts of a radar, ten pouches and a stock of other LTTE items.
