 (Lanka-e-News, Jan. 31, 2009, 1.35 PM) Troops of the 57 Division under the command of Major General Jagath Dias have located a high profile LTTE hideout including an underground bunker while engaged in mop-up operations in the Visuamadu jungle, yesterday (30).
The LTTE hideout was well fortified and concealed from air detection, security sources said. According to available information the site was frequented by the LTTE Leader Prabakaran and senior cadres. The underground bunker was air conditioned and constructed beneath a luxury compartment with bullet proof doors. A soundproof generator was used for electric power supply for the compartment and the underground bunker. An elevator used between the bunker and the overhead construction was also found which troops state as the first ever instance that security forces have come across such.
Drugs for diabetes patients were also found suggesting that this site was recently accommodated by the LTTE leader, security sources further said. |
