The separatist
statements made by the Tamil National Alliance (TNA) have increased noticeably
following the visit of UN High Commissioner for Human Rights, Navineetham
Pillay, Media Spokesman of the National Freedom Front (NFF), Mohammed Muzammil
stated.
Speaking at a press
conference today (September 4), he claimed that TNA candidate C. Vigneshwaram
had stated that the LTTE was not a terrorist organization and that Prabhakaran
was not a terrorist but a hero to him and the Tamil people.
He questioned Vigneshwaram’s
commitment to upholding the authority of the law with regards to this
statement.
Muzammil said that
the LTTE used to operate with arms and international power where as now it
operates through politics and international power.
He also opposed the
SLMC’s decision to aid Navi Pillay as he claimed that she was not an unbiased
and independent authority.
