Mysterious aircraft seen near Mullaitivu
The Navy had opened fire on Tuesday night on a suspicious aircraft flying over the sea off Mullaitivu, flying Eastward from LTTE-held Mullaitivu, official sources said.
According to the official sources, the suspicious plane had earlier been sighted coming from the North and entering the uncleared area in Mullaitivu passing the Chalai coast.
When contacted by Daily Mirror, Navy spokesman Captain D.K.P. Dassanayake confirmed that Navy craft had detected this unidentified plane over the Mullaitivu seas between 8.45 and 9.00 pm.“Sailors on board patrol vessels in the Mullaitivu seas had opened fire at the aircraft, which innediately switched off its lights and disappeared,” the spokesman said.
He said that, thirty minutes earlier, sailors in the Northern sea defence line had detected the aircraft which was heading towards Mullaittivu.
Meanwhile, Air Force spokesman Wing Commander Janaka
Nanayakkara, confirming the report, said that Air Force surveillance planes had observed some unidentified object in the Chalai and Mullaitivu skies at around that time.
“We also observed an object with bright lights moving at very high altitude and for a short period with the lights going on an off,” he said, adding: “the altitude of the air object was very high and we are investigating whether it was an aircraft and whom it belonged to.”
H e said, however, that the LTTE did not posses that kind of high altitude craft. “It could not have been an LTTE aircraft as it was flying at a high altitude at the time of detection,” he said.
Meanwhile, sources said that both the Air Force and the Navy had been placed on high alert following reports of the suspicious aircraft.
Local and foreign intelligence reports have indicated that Tiger Leader Velupillai Prabhakaran would flee the country before troops reach the last LTTE bastion in Mullaitivu. Army Commander Lieutenant General Sarath Fonseka, too, said last week that Prabhakaran would flee the country rather than take his life.
