Batticaloa leader of Wanni Tigers under house arrest in Kilinochchi

Army intelligence sources say that political wing leader of the Wanni Tigers organization for Batticaloa Ilanthairayan alias Marshall has been summoned to Kilinochchi and detained under house arrest. He has thus been put in house arrest on charges of raping women Tiger cadres and other women and misappropriation of money. He has also been ousted from the post of the political wing leader for Batticaloa..

There are reports that Tiger leadership has summoned Ilanthairayan alias Marshall to Kilinochchi and interrogated him at length about the frauds he is said to have committed. Military wing leader for Ampara, Ram too has been called to Kilinochchi along with Marshall and no decision has yet been made about his expulsion

Security sources are in doubt that the internal crisis within the Wanni Tiger organisation will aggravate if both of them were ousted at the same time.

Daya Mohan has now been appointed as the acting political wing leader for Batticaloa, but as Wanni Tiger leadership has lost confidence in him, he has not been confirmed in this post. Army intelligence sources have discovered that there are allegations against Daya Mohan too.

Ilanthairayan alias Marshall and Ram were summoned to Killinochchi three or four days ago. Wanni Tigers who suffered a heavy setback in the face of attacks from Karuna Faction will go into serious crisis in this situation.
