He was speaking as the main guest speaker at the Sri Lanka United National association's Special General Meeting held at the North York Civic Centre Auditorium in Toronto, Canada, recently.He said a LTTE member called Mike Daniel Jeya is already in prison for this passport racket , and the LTTE has sold these passports to the highest bidders including an Algerian Al Qaeda group that compromised Norway's own security very seriously.Falk Rovik further said the LTTE in Norway has made use of weak members of the society, who are corrupted to engage in various crimes and select them from Norwegian police services, politicians , military and ex-military to do their dirty jobs."In this case it was a police officer who was made use of. Police officer Herman Olav Nyhusmoen was a man of habitual gambling and was always wanting money to pay his debts. So, LTTE cadre Mike Daniel Jeya was easily able to steal the passports using him," the speaker said. The speaker said both the Norwegian and the LTTE cadre are in jail for the crimes committed. Rovik said the great passport fraud was detected when a LTTE man was caught with 700 passports in Thailand. He said according to Interpol figures 130,000 Norwegian passports have been stolen. The speaker pointed out that the LTTE has used some of the stolen passports and the balance has been sold to the highest bidders including the Al Qaeda group in Algeria.A large gathering including representatives from Amnesty International, Mackenzie Institute, Royal Canadian Mounted Police, CSIS, Toronto Police, several GTA Riding Association officials, Sri Lanka's High Commissioner, Deputy High Commissioner, Consul General and other Sri Lankan community leaders were present in the hall to listen to his lecture. Rovik who is also a member of the board of Oslo Chapter of the Amnesty International said almost 90 percent of LTTE revenues are raised from criminal activities outside Sri Lanka , including the smuggling of narcotics and humans , extortion of Diaspora members , credit card fraud etc.Falk Ravik charged that the Government of Norway has funded the LTTE through two ways , by giving money to the bogus humanitarian front organization called Tamil Rehabilitation Organization (TRO) and sending money to secret bank accounts. He said the TRO is directly controlled by the LTTE and is being used to funnel money into the LTTE's arms procurements. He said the money supplied by Norway to the TRO ran into millions of dollars . He said his organization extracted these lists from public records and published. Now he said as a cover up the government is grouping those figures to hide certain names the monies received. Just like the Norway government supplied funds to the PLO when the country played a mediatory role in the Israeli-Palestenian conflict , the speaker said, Norway is also using secret accounts to fund the LTTE. He said during the Middle East conflict such funds ended up in private accounts in Swiss Banks.Folk Rovik further charged ex-Norwegian Special Forces have trained the LTTE Sea Tigers in under water demolition methods in Thailand . He said ex-Norwegian Special forces never train foreigners without the consent of the Norwegian government. The speaker said the Sea Tigers were especially trained in attacking ports and navy ships. He further revealed that certain Norwegian military personnel serving in the Sri Lanka Monitoring Mission (SLMM) under the peace process have taken LTTE personnel to study at the Special Forces Military base in Rena, Norway.He said the Norway managed SLMM monitors are not true monitors but a bias lot and said it was amply demonstrated when a Chinese Fishing trawler was destroyed by the Sea Tigers. Rovik said what the SLMM said was that the sinking of the Chinese vessel was done by an unknown third party !He said there are innumerable pieces of evidence to prove that the Norwegian government has contributed to terrorism in Sri Lanka. Due to that the victims of terrorism in Sri Lanka who have lost their limbs, loved ones and property and suffered mutilations are able to file class actions against the Norwegian government asking for compensation, under the country's laws Rovik said.</blockquote>
