*During the final phase of the war in Mullaitivu — Mullivaikkal — the Sri Lanka Military operations were led by – the – ground command, in Mullaitivu / Vanni (Feb–April 2009 + May 16-18)*
The Vanni theater was run by Security Forces Headquarters – Vanni. Key commanders named for the final operations by their names were:
– *Maj. Gen. Jagath Jayasuriya* — Security Forces Commander, Vanni. He was present at the official ceremony on 20 May 2009 announcing the end of the war.

*Repeated History …*
*Cankili II* was the last king of the Jaffna Kingdom.
– *1617*: Portuguese forces from Colombo, led by Captain-General Filipe de Oliveira, invaded the Jaffna Kingdom.
– *June 1619* The Portuguese captured Cankili II along with members of his family.
– *1619*: He was *beheaded in Goa* along with other members of the royal family.
*Whereas on May 16-18 2009*
The last battles happened in Mullivaikkal; where the LTTE leadership surrendered.
*The above History repeats on May 18 2009* which, according to *IDP’S* *confidential eyewitnesses information received:* ….
Velupillai Prabhakaran’s son Balachandran was taken to a bunker and shot thrice at short range before his father’s eyes and then his father was brutally murdered and the body was placed near the Nandikadal lagoon.
I must strongly say? “that the earlier was history; but the current been totally different, as these brutish war crimes were made after a peaceful surrender; where in which in my experience was an invitation for a productive constitutional political change”.
*Is it not then a concerning issue how? .
**Maj. Gen. Kamal Gunaratne got Velupillai Prabhakaran’s LTTE “Tamileelam” identity card?*
*Doesn’t it not expose exactly the person responsible for this brutish war crime?*
*”How can we been human beings surrender these issues”?*
Is it not concerning? ……
