Another
batch of
rehabilitated
ex-LTTE
members,
totaling
56, has
been
handed
over to
their
parents.
Many of
them had
quit the
terrorist
organization
at the
height
of the
humanitarian
operation
to
liberate
the
Wanni
and
surrendered
to the
security
forces.
The
government
launched
a
programme
to
rehabilitate
them so
that
they
have
better
prospects
for
their
future.
They
were
rehabilitated
at the
Nawasenapura
Rehabilitation
Centre
at
Welikande.
They
were
handed
over to
their
parents
after a
period
of one
year in
a
ceremony
presided
over by
Major
Gen.
R.M.D.
Ratnayake,
the
Commissioner
General
of
Rehabilitation.
