The troops have uncovered a main administrative centre of the LTTE terrorists, located in Puthukuduyirippu.
The terrorists had been operating this administrative centre near the suicide tiger training camp which was seized by the troops recently. It was located within the thick jungles. The cash counters in the building has raised doubts whether the tigers had used them to collect ransom. There are cells near the counter, indicating that the terrorists may have detained those who did not properly make payments. The tigers had fled leaving away a heap of flags and 12 land phones. There is evidence that several tigers stationed in the South had exchanged letters written in Sinhala. Troops of the 57th Division commanded by Major Gen. Jagath Dias and under the guidance of the 572nd Brigade headed by Colonel Senarath Bandara, are continuing search operations in the area.
