President
concerned about killing of informants
[May 7, 2003 - 7.00 GMT]
In a
letter addressed the Prime Minister Ranil Wickremasinghe, President
Kumaratunga expressed her dissatisfaction about the government’s inactivity
regarding killing of Tamil informants in security forces.
Letter
further says that killing of the informants proves that the LTTE
intelligence service has access to highly confidential security information.
“This situation shows that national security is in grave danger.”
Last
year President Kumaratunga appointed a Special Presidential Commission to
probe into the raid of Ahturugiriya Long Range Reconnaissance Patrols (LRRP),
also referred to as deep penetration hit squads which these informants were
serving.
President Kumaratunga wrote to Prime Minister to give his fullest
cooperation to this Commission.
