The Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) will lose one of its major income generating sources after they lose Thoppigala jungles where they conducted businesses including cannabis plantation, said security forces (SFs) engaged in the battle at Thoppigala, according to Daily News. General Officer Commanding the 23rd Division of the Sri Lanka Army, Major General Daya Ratnayaka, said that troops are now engaged in a mission to liberate thousands of paddy acres which were forcibly taken by the LTTE after chasing the farmers away from their lands, adding, "In addition to cultivating paddy lands forcibly taken from innocent civilians, the Security Forces have observed that the LTTE was engaged in many other illegal activities within the Thoppigala jungles like cannabis cultivation and illicit timber felling." The outfit also takes ransom from civilians employed in brick production and other legal industries, he added. Meanwhile, Brigade Commander of the 232 Brigade in Sittandi, Lt. Colonel Priyantha Napagoda, said many LTTE cadres were surrendering to the SFS after crossing the lagoon in Santhiveli area, adding, "The Security Forces thwarted several attempts by the LTTE to break the defences in Sittandi area including their failed attempt to capture four Army camps Mavadivembu, Chenkaladi, Sittandi and Vantharamoolai a few months back."

Sri Lanka government intends to hold elections to the local bodies in the Eastern Province, said an unnamed official of the Presidential Secretariat in Colombo on June 27. The official told The Hindu that with the virtual ouster of the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Ealam (LTTE) from its remaining pockets in the east, the government would like to empower the people at the grassroots level to elect their own representatives and have a say on issues of development. "The time-frame is not worked out yet. The intention of the Government is to involve people in decision-making process. The idea is to follow up the local bodies polls with an election to the eastern provincial council with a Chief Minister in place," he said. It would be for the first time since 1989 that the province would witness the democratic exercise. Elections to the temporarily merged north and eastern provinces were held as a follow up to the 1987 Indo-Sri Lanka Accord. Meanwhile, the military claimed that it has gained control of 99 per cent of the territory in the Thoppigala jungles, the last remaining pocket of the LTTE, and an estimated 100 odd cadres of the outfit were trapped in the bushy jungles.
