CHAUVINIST HAKEEM BETRAYS
THE MUSLIMS FOR TERRORIST PERKS
A.A.M.NIZAM MATARA.
Few year ago, Sri Lanka
Muslim Congress leader Rauff Hakeem with LTTE Leader Velupillai Prabhakaran
Treacherous and chauvinist Rauf Hakeem had betrayed the Muslim community
by becoming a propaganda tool of the tiger terrorists. Enjoying the
posh comforts of Colombo life facilitated by vested interests and probably
relishing with a Sellakili provided by the terrorist outfit to substitute
the ill-fated and unfortunate Kumari Cooray of the UNP, this shameless
traitor of the Muslim community, without visiting Muttur and knowing
the real facts had voiced a premeditated statement of the terrorist
outfit accusing that the Sri Lankan security forces were shelling Muttur
civilians whereas these shells had been fired by the terrorist outfit
from their Thoppur and Sampur bases in a frantic effort to chase away
the Muslims and capture Muttur for which they were making relentless
efforts since a long time, due to its strategic location against the
Trincomalee Naval Base.
Through the terrorist website TamilNet this opportunist claimed that
the people in Muttur were killed in attacks carried out by security
forces. He said that the “government must take responsibility for
the killing of civilians”. He had deliberately or under duress
carried out the terrorist command by giving this statement even to the
French Press Agency, AFP, whose local correspondent is a known terrorist
accomplice.
Recently the terrorist outfit through one of its proxies, Tamil Eelam
Motherland Liberation Army, distributed notices in Muttur demanding
the Muslims to vacate the area within 72 hours that was by 1st June
2006. In December last year the LTTE terrorists killed several Muslims
in Muttur and their bodies were dumped into a well which resulted in
ehnic tension and rioting in the East for several days.
In 2003 during the Ranil Wickremasinghe regime the terrorists attacked
and killed Muslims in Muttur which resulted in communal clashes in Muttur
and Valachchenai areas in which 23 Muslims lost their lives.
Hakeem being a Minister in that dark regime did not take any action
to protect the Muslims from the atrocities of the terrorists.
Ven. Athuraliye Rathana Thero who was participating in protests in
the area for seven days against the Mawilaru anicut issue upon returning
to Colombo on the 3rd August, expressed shock and dismay on Rauf Hakeem
remaining blind to killing of innocent people in the area.
Latest reports indicate that the terrorists blocked Muslim civilians
fleeing Muttur at an area called “Pachchanoor” and massacred
at least 100 of them, on Friday evenng, and they included women, children
and elderly persons. These people had been massacred because they provided
food to the security forces. Also many more innocent people have died
when the terrorists deliberately shelled the makeshift refugee camps
in the schools, and when they shelled the Muttur hospital.
The bloody terrorist outfit facing defeat in many fronts in the face
of determined onslaught of the gallant Sri Lankan security forces are
reported to be forcibly holding the fleeing displaced population as
human shields and hiding in the midst of the civilian population.
More than 30,000 people have been displaced forcing them to flee to
neighbouring villages. More than 16,000 people have gone to Kantale,
walking all the way of 40 km from Muttur. The government is reported
to have made arrangements to dispatch food and medical facilities and
a team of doctors to assist the displaced people until the situation
returns to normal.
Our gallant soldiers overcoming the initial setbacks are reported to
have inflicted heavy casualties to terrorist camps at Navaladi, Kattaparichchann,
Gandhinagan and Thoppur areas, killing several hundred terrorist cadres.
These attacks should be mercilessly and relentlessly carried out until
the last terrorist is wiped out from the Trincomalee district.
