The ulterior motive of the Bill is a complete camouflage to hunt our brave soldiers to appease the Tamil Diaspora, TNA, Mangala Gang and the western supported UN. It is unbelievable that before 24 hours of passing this bill, American State officials like Rivikin, Nisha, Keshapp and Tom Molinowisky etc alleged to have hailed and commended the bill as a forward step towards reconciliation. This shows that America is very much behind in following\u00a0 every movement of this this bill until it passes thro in a most undemocratic way for them to make comments so fast. Who else praised the Bill? The Global Tamil Forum and its Tamil diaspora affiliations and TNA in Sri Lanka. While middle eastern countries are burning on fire with American involvement, one cannot fathom \u00a0the important of this small island for the American state officials to focus on. Any way, now the GAME HUNT is on started by the Mangala\/American duos, GTF &amp; TNA LTTE appeasers to hunt our brave servicemen. This is the first step to the next step of the hunt.<\/p>\n<p>Then there was this present Norwegian PM visiting Sri Lanka and shedding crocodile tears and commending the OMP Bill. Sri Lankans very well remember how Norwegian governments before the LTTE was conclusively annihilated in 2009,\u00a0 harboured, trained, armed and financed the LTTE terrorist outfit to continue with their terrorist activities in Sri Lanka. She shouldn\u2019t think that we have forgotten the damage caused by her predecessors by helping the LTTE to prolong the war with Norwegian assistance in every field.<\/p>\n<p>As a starter to the investigation by OMP, may I suggest that the OMP should take a stock of all asylum seekers, refugees and escaped illegals of Tamil origin who left the country after 1983 and\u00a0now living in affluent countries like Canada , USA, UK , Norway, Sweden and\u00a0 other European countries. If these countries mentioned herein failed to cooperate with the OMP and provide the whereabouts of that stock, the OMP should refuse to proceed further on this mission with any further investigation because those supposed to be missing persons may be living among the dead in these countries without any hindrance and with their hospitality. Further, if these countries failed to give the information what OMP wants, then the bill should be thrown into the bin. As I remember right an incident in the past when Maxwell Paranagama Commission requested some information of \u00a0LTTEiers living in Canada , she refused to disclose any names. If all countries as mentioned above which became a safe haven for once LTTTiers and its activists refuse to cooperate with MOP, then we should not bother about the UN resolution against Sri Lanka as those countries were the prime movers of the resolution against Sri Lanka on war crimes. It is their responsibility to help MOP to do its job by assisting.<\/p>\n<p>A case in point is a missing LTTE activists as reported by his wife suddenly surfaced in South India. Details of this saga given in Shenali Waduge\u2019s article.<\/p>\n<p><em>Thayapararajah reappeared from the \u2018dead\u2019, from being \u2018extra-judicially executed\u2019 from being \u2018shot &amp; injured\u2019 while the entire period from 2009 to 2014 local and foreign media went to town claiming Sri Lanka security had tortured and killing him. His name is even on UN\/UNHRC reports and quoted by these officials against the Sri Lankan government as well. After the man emerged from the dead, that too by accident having being caught by the Indian police, none of those who made false allegations so much as apologized or made corrections to their statements and reports.\u201d(Extract from Shenali Waduge\u2019s aryticle)<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Another case in point is a \u00a0top LTTE man called Lawrence Thilagar. He was the head of the LTTE International operations operating from Paris allegedly in charge of collecting funds and procuring arms LTTE. Due to some internal financial fraud, he was recalled back \u00a0to Sri Lanka by LTTE chief Prabhakaran. Since his arrival in Wanni (controlled by LTTE then)\u00a0 he was not heard of. Only LTTE hierarchy would know what happened to Lawrence Thilagar. Or is he also a reported missing person? According to unclassified reports, he was bumped off by LTTE on the orders of Prabhakaran. There may be many cases of this nature and the rehabilitated LTTiers like Daya Master, KP etc can throw \u00a0light on some of these cases.<\/p>\n<p>Last week I saw a news clip in Australian SBS saying a woman with three kids saying that her husband was taken by police and is missing now. I Expected a desperate woman struggling to survive but instead I saw a well dressed woman with her kids living in a comfortable home. That gives a me doubt that her husband \u00a0may be living in a affluent country disguised and sending money and claiming that he has gone missing. There may be hundreds of cases of this nature which should be looked into if the OMP has to do justice for those people who had really gone missing under various circumstances. Is her missing man sending money from some foreign country? Food for thought for OMP.<\/p>\n<p>If the countries like Canada, UK, USA, Norway, Sweden and other European countries who are signatories to the past UN resolutions refuse to give any information to OMP, then special taskforce has to be formed in the Central Bank with the participants from other Banks with due authority to peruse and scrutinise all the past \u00a0Remittances that came from those Tamils asylum seekers and refugees living in these countries who sent\u00a0monies to their kith &amp; kins \u00a0in Sri Lanka. There may be persons like Thayapararajah who reported missing by his wife but surfaced in South India later. By going thro past remittances from abroad by this stock is a \u00a0another way of tracing whether those missing people reported are really missing or living.<\/p>\n<p>Malin Abeyatunge<\/p>\n<p>18\/8\/2016<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Malin Abeyatunge Under unforeseen circumstances,\u00a0 OMP Bill passed through the Parliament for the country\u2019s bad luck.
