 | | | Policeman Released |
A police officer working for the National Child Protection Authority, was released from LTTE detention in Kilinochchi on Thursday morning. He was handed over to the Sri Lanka Monitoring Mission that subsequently handed him over to the Security Forces in Vavuniya. K.A. D Sarath was apprehended by the LTTE along with his two colleagues near Silavatturai in September last year when the team was in a pursuit of a well known child abuser. “We would like to express our appreciation to the LTTE for releasing the police officer but it is important to not forget that the other two police officers remain in LTTE detention” said the Sri lanka Monitoring Mission. The Monitoring Mission also further appealed to the LTTE to immediately release the other two officers so they can join their families and resume their duties for the National Child Protection Authorities.
