Presidential Commission of Inquiry accepts SLMM recommendation on military supported armed groups
Presidential Commission has accepted the recommendation of the SLMM to remove armed groups working with the military in Northeast. The Commission was appointed after Batticaloa-Amparai head of the LTTE political wing, Kousalyan, was murdered by armed groups in the military controlled area very near a military post.
Commission’s report was handed to the President on October 20th. The recommendation of the SLMM Batticaloa head, was accepted in this report. However, the report did not make any concrete recommendations. LTTE has earlier rejected this Commission saying that a just investigation cannot be expected from a Commission appointed by the President who is also the head of the military that murdered Kousalyan. Similarly people of Batticaloa-Amparai have also rejected the Commission. As a result, the Commission could only gather views from the military and the SLMM. The Commission has stated that due to this they were unable to come to any conclusion from their investigations. It has however, made some general recommendations such as both sides must respect the ceasefire agreement and has stated that both sides are committing ceasefire violations.
