LTTE links to boat-building poses a new threat in TN
With the LTTE outsourcing its boat-building works to the obscure boat-building yards in Kerala, the Tamil Nadu government has woken up to a new threat, IANS said today (March 12).

The recent incidents in Munambam near Kochi and Azheekkal in Thrissur district in which the authorities have `seized' two boats allegedly being built for the Tigers indicate that the outfit has its presence or agents in Kerala.

The boat seized from Munambam is now under the custody of Joint Director Fisheries, Kochi. But the boat from Azheekal has not been seized but it is under the observation of Kodungallor police.

Policemen have been deployed for observation at both these yards.
