Police on May 26 arrested a key supporter of the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE), on her arrival in Colombo, reports The Island. Well informed sources said that she had been instrumental in collecting funds in Frankfurt for the terrorist organisation and played a key role in the anti-Sri Lanka demonstrations held in the German Commercial Capital during the final stages of the ‘humanitarian operation’ launched by the Security Forces.

The woman, who had lived in Germany for a considerable period, was also one of the main organisers of the anti-Sri Lanka demonstration held opposite the Indian Consul General’s office in Frankfurt, sources said.

Two pro-Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) activists were arrested in Paris on June 4 following the death of Ramesh Sivarupan who is believed to be a member of the Ruthrakumar faction of the LTTE, according to informed sources, reports Sunday Observer. The sources said that Ramesh Sivarupan was reportedly kidnapped and taken in a van from his residence in Paris and was found near his house after few days with injuries. He succumbed to injuries at a hospital in Paris on June 3. Thambiah Ganesh and Kuppilan Ravi, believed to be members of the Nediyavan group of the pro-LTTE faction have been taken into custody by the Police in Paris in connection with the death of Sivarupan, sources said. A week before, the Nediyavan faction set ablaze thousands of copies of Thainilam, a newspaper in Paris printed by its rival Ruthrakumar faction. The rivalry between the two factions had spread to several parts of Europe with the members of each faction looking for each other, the sources said. According to sources, the conflict between the two factions sparked off following the annihilation of the LTTE in Sri Lanka in 2009. The two factions are demanding that the assets held by the LTTE abroad should be shared, apart from their new ideologies, informed sources said. V. Ruthrakumar, a lawyer by profession domiciled in the United States is the ‘architect’ behind the setting up of the so-called ‘Transitional Government of Tamil Eelam (TGTE)’ of his faction.

Quoting the Dutch media, Colombo Page reports that the Netherlands authorities have again arrested several Tamils as a part of an ongoing investigation into illegal activities of the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) movement in the country. Radio Netherlands Worldwide states that the organisation, which seeks to establish an independent Tamil State in northeast Sri Lanka, was placed on the European Union list of terrorist organisations in 2006. A spokesperson for the Public Prosecutors' Office has reportedly announced that four suspects have been arrested in Breda, Rotterdam, Heemskerk and Heerlen in the Netherlands. The arrests come after seven suspects were arrested in April, 2010. According to the Dutch media, the Police investigation focuses on attempts to raise funds for the LTTE. The investigation is also intended to show whether the suspects are members of a criminal and terrorist organisation. The Police are still looking for people who can provide information on LTTE activities in the Netherlands, the media report said.
