Another senior EPDP member was shot dead at his residence in Wellawatte yesterday afternoon allegedly by LTTE cadres, police said.
They said the 39-year-old victim identified as Somasundaram Warnakulasingham alias Singham died on his way to hospital while his wife also suffered serious gun shot injuries and was hospitalised.
Yesterday's killing came about a week after EPDP member Sivakumar was killed in Puttalam. On Monday, the EPDP brought his body in a coffin to the gates of the Norwegian embassy in Colombo and demanded effective action by the facilitators to stop alleged LTTE killings.
Meanwhile, a former LTTE cadre known to be a close supporter of Karuna was shot dead while he was returning home at Manampitiya in Mananthota on Wednesday night. Polonnaruwa police Inspector L.,H.Piyasena said the 22-year-old victim identified as Rajadurai Sivanathan alias Kutty had deserted the LTTE after serving it for about 7 years.
