Commanding officer of the Charles Anthony squad "Veeramani" killed

Commanding officer of the LTTE's Charles Anthony squad, which has been named after LTTE leader Velupillai Prabakaran's son, has been killed in a Karuna faction attack.

Veeramani had been reportedly traveling in a double cab in the LTTE controlled Thoppigala area when it caught a claymore bomb set up by the Karuna faction.

A spokesperson from the Karuna faction confirmed that Veeramani was killed by a claymore set up by their organization on Sunday (31).

However, the LTTE denies the attack and claims that Veeramani was killed in a road mishap.
