The oldest and most intricately craved Sandakadaphana belongs to the Anuradhapura Kingdom. 2 “My preparation for this long trip unearthed an assortment of information about Sri Lanka that was hard to synthesize – history, religions, laws, nature and ethnic conflict on the one hand and names, advice, maps and travel tips on the other.

  • Attack on the Dollar Farm & Kent Farm – Welioya
    The LTTE Originating in the mid-1970s, the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE), is a mono-ethnic, fascist, terrorist organisation operating in Sri Lanka that seeks to carve out a separate state in an area that comprises 1/3 of Sri Lanka’s land mass and 2/3 of its coastline. Its trail of atrocities has resulted in the killing of some 60,000 persons and destruction of public and private properties. Among its victims are former Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi of India, President Ranasinghe Premadasa of Sri Lanka as well as two generations of Tamil politicians and academics of Sri Lanka, including Foreign Minister Lakshman Kadirgamar and TULF leaders A.Amirthalingam and Dr. Neelan Thiruchelvam. The LTTE’s global network of propaganda, fundraising, procurement and shipping has been in existence since the early 1980s. The LTTE is a proscribed terrorist organisation in India, US, Canada, UK and other EU countries. Suicide Bombing Since its first suicide attack in 1987, the LTTE has successfully used the art of suicide bombing to achieve the elimination of political leaders, including moderate Tamil leaders who were part of the democratic political mainstream. The LTTE has carried out around 1/3 of all suicide attacks in the world. The use of the cyanide capsule is a standard method of the LTTE suicide bombers to evade arrest. Even its leader Velupillai Prabhakaran displays a cyanide capsule around his neck and has made it mandatory for all LTTE cadres to wear one, to reflect the spirit of sacrifice and martyrdom expected of an LTTE suicide bomber.

The views and opinions expressed in the report do not necessarily correspond with those of Norad. Preface For several years, Norway was involved in efforts to contribute to a peaceful solution to the conflict in Sri Lanka. After the military victory by the Sri Lankan army over the Tamil Tigers (LTTE) in May 2009, Norway no longer had a role to play. This evaluation of Norwegian peace efforts in Sri Lanka was commissioned mainly for the purpose of informing international peace efforts. The evaluation team was asked to analyze Norway’s role as a peace facilitator in Sri Lanka 1997 – 2009, in light of the knowledge and opportunities available at the time.
