Peace can now be restored, but only if Tamilians are successfully restored to the mainstream
finally, the Sri Lankan security forces have managed to corner the Tiger in his own lair. When Colombo announced that over 350 bodies of LTTE combatants including the Tiger bosses and near-mythical figure, Velupillai Prabhakaran’s dead bodies were recovered from the war zone, it seemed to one and all to be the welcome end to the Tiger terror. The list of those killed included crème da la crème names and LTTE seems to have been left headless. A jubilant Sri Lankan President Mahinda Rajapaksa, announced to a relieved nation that the ‘final task’ for liberation had been accomplished.
Those who are left of the LTTE claim that Prabhakaran’s death has been forged. Meanwhile, the fate of thousands of unarmed civilians, reportedly accompanying the Tigers, remains unknown. Colonel Hariharan, ex-head of military intelligence of the Indian Peace Keeping Force (IPKF) in Sri Lanka back in the 1980s, told B&E, “One has to go by the version of the head of the government. The Sri Lankan President is accountable to his people.” It was a veiled admission that he had no independent sources for confirming Prabhakaran’s death. But now that Prabhakaran and LTTE are out of the way, the question is – does the Sri Lankan government have a road map to bring Tamils into the mainstream and build a foundation for lasting peace?
