The Acting Inspector General of Police (IGP) has today directed the Criminal Investigations Department (CID) to launch an investigation into the controversial statements made by Vinayagamoorthy Muralitharan alias Col. Karuna Amman regarding alleged crimes committed while he was a leader in the LTTE.
Karuna Amman on Friday (19) has said that he was more dangerous than the Covid 19 virus as he had killed nearly 2,000-3,000 military personnel during the war.
Karuna’s statement has drawn criticism from many parties claiming that he was trying to glorify the killing of Sri Lankan soldiers during his time as an LTTE militant.
