Exchange of Letters
between Mr.Tamilselvan & Secretary to Sri Lanka President
13 January 1995
Mr. K. Balapatabendi,
Secretary to the President
1. The LTTE considers it absolutely essential that the international chairmen discuss the cessation of hostilities with the LTTE leadership before taking up their posts. This is considered vital to ensure their role in a neutral capacity.
2. The LTTE strongly protests at the sending of the chairmen of the Batticoloa-Amparai and Trincomalee Peace Committees to their respective assignments without contact having been made with the LTTE leadership.
Signed:Mr. S. P. Tamilselvan.
Leader, Political Section Jaffna
Mr. S.P.Tamilselvan
Leader, Political Section, LTTE
Have received your message of 13 January, sent through ICRC.
H.E. President has considered LTTE's views in matter, and has arranged for discussions between LTTE leadership and Chairmen of Committees for verification of violations of Cessation of Hostilities, before latter commence their functions.
Accordingly, it has been arranged to defer commencement of work by Trincomalee and Batticaloa-Amparai committees for present.
It is hoped to enable all Chairmen of Committees, who are here at the invitation of Government, to arrive in Jaffna for discussions on Tuesday 17 January, accompanied by Government representative who would look to Chairmen's well being.
Travel details will be finalised through usual military liaison channels, and will be communicated through ICRC.
K Balapatabendi,
Secretary to the President
