The Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) is said to be pressurizing International Non-Governmental Organisations operating in the outfit’s controlled areas of Wanni to channel funds to be used for development purposes in the area through the Tamil Rehabilitation Organisation (TRO), Daily Mirror reports. Two local personnel attached to an NGO operating in Kilinochchi were abducted by the LTTE two weeks ago and subsequently released following pressure by the charity group which carried out large scale assistance programmes in the area. The NGOs are reportedly refusing to concede to the LTTE demand and are even threatening to suspend operations if the pressure continues. Most of them have strict policies against channelling funds through a third party and they also fear that if funds are channelled through the TRO they may be misused for terrorism-related activities.
