LTTE hardcore starts abandoning the outfit- Pooneryn

Three senior LTTE cadres who fought for the terrorist outfit for more than a decade have surrendered to Sri Lanka Army today (Dec 8).

According to the defence sources, the three LTTE cadres between 25-30 years of age have showed themselves up to Army Task Force 1 (TF 1) soldiers operating in the Pooneryn area and laid down their weapons wanting to surrender. Army after primary investigations would direct the surrendered to rehabilitation centers, the sources said.

The surrendered have told the Army that thousands more LTTE cadres are waiting for an opportunity to abandon the terrorist outfit, said the sources. They are still not very much sure about how the Army would receive them, said the sources citing the surrendered. However, many of them have understood that Army’s not their real enemy, the surrendered have further said.
