Tigers’ ghastly act! Exhume, mutilate & burn murdered candidates body - LankaTruth [05th April 2004]

Tiger organization has exhumed the body of Rajan Sathyamoorthy, TNA candidate for Batticaloa District murdered recently, mutilated it and burnt it.

Rajan Sathyamoorthy’s body had been buried in a cemetery at a place called Annapoopathy in Batticaloa. As this was a cemetery said to be reserved for the “heroes” of the tiger organization and their families, the tiger organization has done this villainous act stating that a traitor’s body could not be buried there.

Rajan Sathyamoorth was gunned down last week by the tiger organization as he had expressed his allegiance to Karuna Amman’s faction of the tiger organization. However, at the General Election, 27,432 have cast their preference votes for him.

Though Batticaloa police and the SLMM have been informed of the exhumation of Rajan Sathyamoorthy’s body and ravaging of it, no action has been taken yet.
