A prominent LTTE leader and leader of the Pro-LTTE Tamil Coordinating Committee (TCC) in France Nadarajah Matheenthiran alias Parithy was shot dead in Paris, France as a result of internal rift, informed sources said.

Sources said that Parithy belonged to LTTE's Nediyavan faction. Since the death of Prabhakaran an internal rift occurred between LTTE Europe Leader Nediyawan and V. Rudrakumaran who was also a prominent LTTE leader based in USA.

Meanwhile AFP reported a Sri Lankan man was shot dead in Paris late Thursday, a police source said.

The murder may be an example of violence within the Sri Lankan community, though no line of investigation has been ruled out, the source added.

The victim, in his fifties and known to the police, was hit by gunfire from an unknown assailant in eastern Paris.

He died shortly afterwards, the police source said.

A hunt has been launched for the killer who fled the scene.

    The west is yet to learn just how ungrateful these people are. First they killed people in Sri Lanka and left. The west gives them a home and they go there and kill their own. Next, they will kill the French.
