On February 4, the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) stated they were freeing 23 children after allegations that they had recruited at least 40 child soldiers since the island was hit by the tsunami. The outfit claimed that 23 children were handed over to the North East Secretariat on Human Rights (NESOHR) on February 3 to be reunited with their parents. The release came a week after the United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF) accused LTTE of recruiting at least 40 child soldiers since the December 26-tsunami.

Secretary General, Kofi Annan, in the latest United Nations (UN) report on "Children and Armed Conflict" said that since 2001, the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) has recruited more than 4700 children. "The LTTE has often carried out recruitment by force, abducting children while on their way to school or during religious festivities, and beating families and teachers who resisted the seizure of the children," Annan said. He added that the Security Council should take targeted and concrete measures against parties named in his report, including the LTTE, that have made insufficient or no progress on the issue of child recruitment. "Such measures should include the imposition of travel restrictions on leaders and their exclusion from any governance structures and amnesty provisions, the imposition of arms embargo, a ban on military assistance, and restriction on the flow of financial resources to the parties concerned," Annan added. The report stated that during 2004 alone, more than 1000 cases of new recruitment and re-recruitment were reported to the UNICEF in Sri Lanka, a high percentage of them being girls. Out of the 4700 cases of child recruitment since April 2001, more than 2900 children have returned or been released to their families, including about 1230 children who were formally released, he said.

The Hindu has reported that Tamil National Force (TNF), a para-military group under the joint command of the leader of the breakaway Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) faction, Vinayagamoorthy Muralitharan alias ‘Colonel Karuna, and the Eelam National Democratic Liberation Front, on February 10 claimed responsibility for the killing of LTTE leader, E. Kaushalyan in Batticaloa district. The claim posted on the official website of Karuna’s group, the TamilEela Makkal Viduthalai Pulikal (TMVP), said the ambush on Kaushalyan was a "direct attack" unlike the killings of some of the supporters of ‘Colonel’ Karuna, who were "shot when they were asleep." The claim was signed by Cheran of the TNF. The Eastern Political wing leader of the LTTE, Kaushalyan, his deputy Nedimaran along with three other LTTE cadres were killed during an ambush at Poonani in the Batticaloa district on February 7.

Canada's Deputy Prime Minister, Anne McLellan, stated on February 14 that she was not excluding the addition of the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) to a list of outlawed terrorist organisations. McLellan, who is also Minister of Public Safety and Emergency Preparedness, was cross-examined at a Senate Committee hearing on the exclusion of LTTE from a list of 35 groups banned by Canada. The main reason for not listing the outfit thus far, according to McLellan, was that "the current Minister of Foreign Affairs (Pierre Pettigrew) and the previous Minister of Foreign Affairs (now Defence Minister Bill Graham) have said that there is some hope for the Sri Lankan peace process and perhaps it would be perceived as not helpful to list the LTTE."

The Janatha Vimukthi Peramuna (JVP), on February 24 opposed resumption of peace talks with the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) based on an interim administration and said negotiations would have to include the outlines of a final settlement. Reacting to the Government’s statement on February 23 that it "continues to be ready" to resume "direct negotiations with the LTTE on the establishment of an interim authority", Wimal Weerawansa, leader of the JVP Parliamentary Group, stated in the Parliament that the party "decisively" rejected "the latest position". "We state clearly that if the present government took such a step, we would immediately withdraw from being a constituent of the Government," Weerawansa said. However, at a press conference later in the day, the JVP leader declined to set a timeframe and was non-committal on the future course of action. The JVP, he said, "was part of the Government," but was "not consulted" on the statement. The JVP, with 39 MPs, is a major constituent of the ruling United People's Freedom Alliance (UPFA).
