Underage volunteers handed back to parents and welfare Organization
Five underage volunteers who opted to join LTTE in Batticaloa were handed back to their parents last week. Another 15 in Kilinochchi who refused to go with the parents even after persuasion by the parents themselves, were entrusted to the Education Skill Development Center for War Affected Children, with the consent of the parents.
Up to now the LTTE handed back 1445 underage volunteers to their parents directly or through UNICEF.
