The leader of the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) breakaway faction, ‘Colonel’ Karuna, has declared war on the Tamils from Jaffna, sources said, adding that this new move sharpens the regional differences among Tamils and brings a new element of Tamils fighting Tamils on a regional basis to the ongoing war, Asian Tribune reported. Karuna’s first move in this regard is to issue an order to the parents of the members of the Eelam People’s Democratic Party (EPDP) led by Minister Douglas Devnanda demanding that their children should immediately give up their membership in other political parties. He has directed his military cadres Thillepan, Jeyanthiran, Veera, Sinnathamby, and Riyaseelan to identify the Jaffna people and force them to leave the Eastern Province. Sources said the commanders had already sent out letters to parents whose children are members of the EPDP ordering them to come to their offices for a meeting to discuss the future of their children enlisted as members of political parties led by Jaffna leaders.
