The Field Marshall said so in response to the statement Vinayagamoorthi alias Karunaa Ammaan had made to the effect that Velupillai Prabhakaran had committed suicide by shooting himself with a pistol.
LTTE’s former Eastern Leader, Karunaa Ammaan who defected from the outfit and entered politics made this new revelation about Prabhakaran’s death in an interview with South India’s TV channel ‘Pudiyathalaimurai’.
However former Army Commander Field Marshall Sarath Fonseka says that Karunaa Ammaan’s statement is false.
