SL Military says Prabakaran’s daughter’s body not found

The military says it had not found the body of LTTE leader Vellupillai Prabakaran's daughter and so could not confirm the veracity of images circulating on some websites of a dead female body with gunshot wounds supposedly found in the north claiming to be that of Dwaraka, the Tiger leader’s daughter.

Speaking to Daily Mirror online Military spokesperson Brigadier Udaya Nanayakkara said that the military had never found bodies of Prabhakaran’s family members except for his son Charles Anthony.

We did not identify Dwaraka’s body amongst the un-identified female bodies in May and have still not found a body similar to those the pictures circulating in the internet,” Brig. Nanayakkara said. According to him there were female bodies that were found on May 19th but none of them fitted the profile of Dwaraka.

The picture on the internet claiming to be that of Dwaraka shows her in her undergarments lying dead on the bare ground. Another picture of her taken when she was alive in a red shalwar kameez shows close resemblance although it is not confirmed that it is the same person in both of these pictures.
