Army Commander Jagath Jayasuriya addressing troops in  Mullaitivu today stated that the Army would be producing a documentary containing eye witness evidence of the final battle that took place in the Nanthikadal lagoon.

“ There are reports that UK based Channel-4 TV channel have compiled  and are going to release another documentary allegedly detailing the death of the LTTE leader. The Army in response to this wants to show the world the real picture and therefore we have begun work on producing a documentary with proper, coherent evidence about the final battle” he said.

The commander went on to state that the documentary will provide the world with a true description into the death of the slain leader of the LTTE. “ The documentary will reveal the true facts into the death of Prabhakaran, people who were involved and who were present at the scene will be interviewed and the world would be given a chance to know what exactly happened in the Nanthikadal lagoon” he added.

    what about the rising cost of living

    Fazal-Sydney Tuesday, 13 March 2012 01:26 AM

    Who is going to act Prabhakaran's role?

    Dinesh Tuesday, 13 March 2012 01:54 AM

    Unable to make a comment cause of New rules for SMS news !!

    MH Tuesday, 13 March 2012 01:41 AM

    I am only interested in to see how Prabha was killed.I hope he and his familly had a painful end to their lives as they made generations die painfully and some are today sufffering with disability and children without parents and parents without children. Tamil Diaspora also was responsible for these sufferings due to funding and Karma also will come to your families soon so beware no matter which country you live.

    Dinesh Tuesday, 13 March 2012 02:00 AM

    For best script and story writing competition!!

    janaka Tuesday, 13 March 2012 07:47 AM

    Gota.

    Mifaz Tuesday, 13 March 2012 07:42 AM

    Before what Praba created this situation, we should look back the history where the govt. led thuggeris destroyed innocent people in 1980's. Does KARMA works for them too?

    AMT Tuesday, 13 March 2012 08:01 AM

    This is reaction proving Newton Ayyah'a third rule Eh

    Sbesion Tuesday, 13 March 2012 08:34 AM

    Yes Karma will come to each and every person. But we will wait and see it will come towards shinghala ppl or diaspora ppl!!!

    Ralph Anthony Tuesday, 13 March 2012 08:36 AM

    How can you produce a movie, when the main hero is serving a prison sentence. He is the one that articulated the victory. Without the General's comments the movie is baseless.

    Puran Monday, 12 March 2012 06:05 PM

    Will it make to the 2013 IOscars as a documentery. These ugly things happened, there is n turning back.

    The best thing that is left to do is just let it pass and be forgttoen.

    Mifaz Tuesday, 13 March 2012 09:16 AM

    Dont use my tax money to produce those worthless films.

    GK Holdings Tuesday, 13 March 2012 12:01 PM

    @ Mifaz, our economy is not funded by the tax payers, but rather with loans from IMF, China, India etc

    Game Kolla Tuesday, 13 March 2012 12:07 PM

    Where were you Mr Jagath Jayasooriya during the last stages of fighting with Prabhakaran?

    S de Silva Tuesday, 13 March 2012 12:08 PM

    Well, Kondebendapucheena or whoever you are, there would have been far more pressing issues at the time than making a video of the final moments of a ruthless terrorist - and the time is now when we are challenged to produce it. Next time, Kondebendapucheena, before you hit the PC keyboard, please first have something more useful to say inside your head! - S de Silva - London

    dave Tuesday, 13 March 2012 12:28 PM

    What a racist comment. shame on you

    Amila.G Tuesday, 13 March 2012 12:48 PM

    Mr. Jayasuriya, When the west is trying to fix Sri Lanka on War crimes you are adding fuel to the fire. Are you`ll pre occupied after the war .These are things to be forgotten and carry on in life,Unless other wise you have been told to produce this documentry or the so called film for Political again as the war can be kept fresh in peoples minds and sold over and over again to the people of Sri Lanka to by votes when ever there is a Election in this country .

    DeSleva Monday, 12 March 2012 12:21 PM

    is this a reaction to the C4 screening...why was this not done before.

    sudhu Monday, 12 March 2012 12:36 PM

    A truth should be told first.....too late

    kaputakukula Monday, 12 March 2012 12:35 PM

    Tit for tat!!! Now wee need an international screen (or scream)?

    Jegath Monday, 12 March 2012 01:00 PM

    Very good Sir, but why so late? This is very crucial information and we should have been pro active and shown the world long ago and saved us and the reputation of Our Army.
    Still you are asking for time to produce this implying that you are going to edit and make it suitable for the Public and International Consumption.
    Even if you edit, why tell the world?
    Why Not release it as it is Sir? Thank you Commander.

    buffaloa citizen Monday, 12 March 2012 01:01 PM

    That is why it was not told first. Not too late, because we can at least see to what level truth is twisted.

    Kondebendapucheena Monday, 12 March 2012 11:48 AM

    Why it took 3 years to do it

    banda Monday, 12 March 2012 04:40 PM

    where have you put MR in the movie

    Minister Monday, 12 March 2012 04:41 PM

    Do you have time to film it and take it to Geneva this time?

    Guest Monday, 12 March 2012 04:50 PM

    Naive!

    Guest Monday, 12 March 2012 04:52 PM

    To contest the myth being spread by the west for it's gain! Who else could and should do a better job?

    Izmy Monday, 12 March 2012 04:38 PM

    This is what you can say but it will never happen. This is what we see today even the army is similar to our politicians .

    De silva Monday, 12 March 2012 04:46 PM

    you dont throw the ace always at the begining

    Mervyn Monday, 12 March 2012 04:59 PM

    The Army Commander is right, by sticking to his guns, i.e. provide information only if required or when answering a specific question. It is better not to deliver information which are irrelevant at any point.

    Punchi Monday, 12 March 2012 05:31 PM

    better late than never.
    After all they did a lot of sacrifice for all to live today
    cutting through hardship and deception.
    Cheers to Armed forces......!!!!

    shan Monday, 12 March 2012 05:31 PM

    Took 3 years to cook

    Suneth Monday, 12 March 2012 05:42 PM

    And you are going to act the Hero's role in it? Of course, who else did the job!
