“Gota Ordered Them To Be Shot” – General Sarath Fonseka

General Fonseka explained how on the night of May 17th this year desperate efforts of three senior LTTE leaders trapped in the war zone to save their lives failed as they were instead shot dead as they prepared to surrender to government forces.

Balasingham Nadeshan a former police constable of Sri Lanka police was the political head of the LTTE. Seevaratnam Pulidevan was the head of “LTTE peace secretariat” while Ramesh a senior special commander of the military wing.

But the attempt to surrender by the three LTTE leader and their families failed. Sometime between midnight on 17 May and the early hours of the next morning, the three men and their family members were shot dead.

But General Fonseka maintains that Nadesan, Ramesh and Pulidevan had been shot dead by government troops as they advanced towards them carrying a white flag, as they had been instructed to do.

  • There's definitely something underlying this story.

    I personaly can't believe that this statement was given by Gen. Sarath Fonseka
    himself.

    If So, I will neither give my vote to SF as he proved that he's not a patriot anymore nor to MR since he's been the biggest thief ever in Sri Lanka and his
    regime.

    BUT I HAVE A SERIOUS DOUBT ABOUT THIS ARTICLE.

    I'M PRETTY SURE THAT SF WILL COME FORWARD AND EXPRESS HIS OPINION ON THIS.

    SaNI Je, Thank you for bringing attention to my post, I asked the question after seeing the events of the last few days as a sincere question.

    I am not a political Supporter of MR
    I am not a political Supporter of SF
    I am not a political Supporter of JVP, UNP or any other Political party

    BUT I am a Supporter of our Armed Forces, who sacrificed their lives to free our land, And What SF said today was a very cheap statement.

    He threw great heroes such as Shavendra Silva and other Army personal under the Bus for cheap political millage...The man who once spoke highly of the Army as a "Professional and Disciplined Army" is now saying the same army Killed LTTE leaders in cold blood.

    This is not a matter of protecting MR and his government, But This is matter of protecting our Forces and not giving westerners any chance to discredit our Army.

    I cant believe what general fonseka has said in the article below, Please put your comments below:

    “Gota Ordered Them To Be Shot” – General Sarath Fonseka

    Common opposition candidate General Sarath Fonseka says Defense Secretary Gothabaya Rajapaksa instructed a key ground commander in the north that all LTTE leaders must be killed and not allowed to surrender.

    In an explosive interview with The Sunday Leader General Fonseka the then Army Commander said he had no information communicated to him in the final days of the war that three key LTTE leaders had opted to surrender to Sri Lanka’s armed forces as the battle drew to a bloody finish.

    Fonseka charged that communications were instead confined between the LTTE leaders, Norway, various foreign parties, Basil Rajapaksa, Member of Parliament and the powerful senior adviser to the President and such information was never conveyed to him as he supervised the final stages of the war. “Later, I learnt that Basil had conveyed this information to the Defense Secretary Gothabaya Rajapaksa – who in turn spoke with Brigadier Shavendra Silva, Commander of the Army’s 58th Division, giving orders not to accommodate any LTTE leaders attempting surrender and that “they must all be killed.”

    General Fonseka explained how on the night of May 17th this year desperate efforts of three senior LTTE leaders trapped in the war zone to save their lives failed as they were instead shot dead as they prepared to surrender to government forces.

    The government later claimed that troops found bodies of three key LTTE leaders identified as Nadesan, Pulidevan and Ramesh during the mop- up operations in the last LTTE stronghold on the morning of May 18.
    General Fonseka said the incident took place as the remaining LTTE cadres were boxed into a 100m x 100m area, North of Vellamullivaikkal.

    Balasingham Nadeshan a former police constable of Sri Lanka police was the political head of the LTTE. Seevaratnam Pulidevan was the head of “LTTE peace secretariat” while Ramesh a senior special commander of the military wing.
    Hours before they surrendered, in a flurry of emails, text messages and telephone calls between NGOs, a foreign government and Sri Lankan officials in Colombo, the two LTTE political leaders had frantically inquired as to how they could give themselves up.

    They were told: “Get a piece of white cloth, put up your hands and walk towards the other side in a non-threatening manner.”

    But the attempt to surrender by the three LTTE leader and their families failed. Sometime between midnight on 17 May and the early hours of the next morning, the three men and their family members were shot dead.

    General Fonseka said it was Basil Rajapaksa together with the Defence Secretary Gothabaya Rajapaksa who through foreign intermediaries conveyed a message back to the LTTE leaders who wished to surrender to walk out carrying a piece of white cloth. “It was their idea,” he said.

    GENERAL SILVA AND ARMY COMMANDER SAY ‘ NO COMMENT’
    When we contacted Shavendra Silva, now promoted to Major General he sounded very shocked when told of the allegation but insisted he could not respond to this charge until he had clearance from the military spokesman.
    Brigadier Udaya Nanayakkara told us he had to get clearance from the Army Commander Jagath Jayasuriya.

    Later in the day the military spokesman said that he had contacted both the Army Commander and General Shavindra Silva and both had said that they would not comment on the matter.

    The chief intermediary for the three LTTE men was the Norwegian government’s then Environment and Development Minister Erik Solheim. (Solheim is now the overseas development minister) On Sunday 17 May, Mr Solheim apparently received calls from LTTE figures who said they wanted to surrender.
    The ICRC in Colombo later confirmed that it had received word from the Norwegians that the two leaders were looking to give themselves up. “The ICRC was approached on this matter by the representatives of the LTTE as well as the Norwegian authorities,” spokeswoman Sarasi Wijeratne was quoted saying at the time of the incident. “The information was referred to the Sri Lankan authorities. We have no idea what happened [then]. We lost contact with everyone in the last conflict.”

    The government’s point man in the negotiations appears to have been former foreign secretary Palitha Kohona who is now Sri Lanka’s ambassador to the United nations He was quoted by news agencies saying that in the days leading up to Sunday evening, he had received a number of messages indicating from Mr. Nadesan and Mr Pulidevan – whom he has met at various peace talks – wanting a way out.

    In one interview with ‘SiberNews’ Mr. Kohona said that his response had been that “there was only one way to surrender that is recognised by military practice”. He said they should obtain a white flag and give themselves up. “I kept saying this for three days,” he added.

    But General Fonseka maintains that Nadesan, Ramesh and Pulidevan had been shot dead by government troops as they advanced towards them carrying a white flag, as they had been instructed to do.

    Fonseka said he later learnt about what exactly had taken place as a result of journalists who had been entrenched at the time with General Shavendra Silva’s brigade command. These reporter’s according to Fonseka were privy to the telephone call received by the Army’s 58th Brigade Commander from the Defence Secretary –“telling him to not accommodate any LTTE surrenders but to simply go ahead and kill them.” – “These journalists later told me what exactly took place,” Fonseka said.

    Very sad to hear this story from Ponseka. He is proving that he is behind power and nothingelse. He will sell his wife and mother to come to power. Power hungry and greediness us unlimited in him.
    For few tamil votes he is betraying his bretheren in the forces.

    Gota identified SF strength in war his own personal vendetta to finish off the LTTE and gain fame.. this strenght has now become his own weakness.
    I think the whole of English speaking population who read the sunday leader today is suffering from this shock.. and lost all respect they had for him a few months ago... only the peelamist are jumping up for joy thinking - hallelujah finally war crimes investigations!!
