The elder brother of LTTE intelligence wing leader Pottu Amman, who had secretly arrived in Sri Lanka and resided in Jaffna, has died recently.
After the revelation of the death of this person, named Shanmugalingam Shivagnanakumar, a German citizen, the German Govt, through its embassy in Sri Lanka, has secretly taken away the dead body to Germany.
He had been residing in a house in Ariyalei, Jaffna for 2 months and during the questioning of the security forces, he had said that it was his ancestral home.
However, according to the security forces, this not the
ancestral home of Pottu Amman and they say that this person had tried to appropriate the property by force.
And on the 21st, he had died from a heart stroke, that happened when he was going in front of Nallur kovil, Jaffna in a foot cycle.
After the police inquiries his body has been brought to a well known florist in Colombo and then to the Airport to be taken to Germany.
It has now been revealed that he had been residing in Germany for a long time and had come to Sri Lanka with the intention of bringing along the rest of his family.
Shanmugaligam Sivashanker, better known as Pottu Amman, head of the LTTE Intelligence Unit (TOSI) and the Black Tigers (Karunku Puligal), is a secretive man, of whom nothing much is known about. Wanted by the Interpol for terrorism, he has been the mystery man of the LTTE. But no more. Sunday Standard is able to unravel the mystery, and expose the LTTE`s second in command in words and picture.
According to very reliable sources, Pottu Amman, born in the early 40s had joined the LTTE in the early 80s after a long stint abroad. His wife is from Sandiweli, near the Eastern University and they have two children, a girl and a boy.
He is said to have been in charge of the LTTE camps in Tamil Nadu costal area during the early days of the LTTE.
In 1985 he was kidnapped by PLOTE cadres in Mahalingapuram, Chennai; and was released in exchange for Kannan, abducted by the LTTE.
Source privy to LTTE inside information told the Sunday Standard that, `Pottu Amman`s life was more of a secret than Prabhakan`s. He headed all the operations outside the North and East parts and orchestrated many suicide attacks against the country`s political leaders and anti LTTE Tamil political party members.`
