Former LTTE Media Coordinator and Spokesman, Daya Master is now leading a new life as the Head of Operations of the Tamil satellite television channel Dan Tv which has a regional studio in Kokuvil, Jaffna.

Speaking to Daily Mirror online from Jaffna Daya Master said that he was happy with his new life and was satisfied with the present peaceful situation in the area.

When questioned about his entry into the journalism field and if there was an improvement in media freedom in the north with the end of the war, Daya Master said that the media was free and the situation had improved. “The media is free now in Jaffna. It is all good hear,” he said.

When questioned on the whereabouts of former LTTE Translator George Master, Daya Master said that George Master was with his family and was not with him anymore. “George Master is looking after his father now I think. He is not with me anymore,” Daya Master said.

George Master and Daya Master were released on bail last year after they surrendered to the security forces in April 2009 while staying in an IDP camp in the Wanni. (Daily Mirror online)

Is this the punishment for people who took arms against the state?

Viv Wednesday, 15 September 2010 07:39 PM

Why isn't this sympathy applicable to SF?

Saradial Wednesday, 15 September 2010 05:36 PM

Poor SF could have joined the LTTE, so that he could enjoy a luxury life now.

Dr Wickramatillake Wednesday, 15 September 2010 05:22 PM

SF who saved the country is ...

So the terrorists are free. SF is in jail. And the people like Ranil, Mangala and Hakeem who brought him to politics are no where near SF anymore.

Nushad Perera Wednesday, 15 September 2010 01:33 PM

does that apply to Sarath?

ruwani fernando Wednesday, 15 September 2010 12:30 PM

what travesty of justice. so the only person in this country who has plotted against the state is sarath fonseka

What lessons have we learnt ? Rehabilitation is commended, but to give the control of a broadcasting network to an ex terrorist is damn stupid.

Pasindhu Wednesday, 15 September 2010 09:27 AM

the best rehabilitation story as at date.

Bakamoona Wednesday, 15 September 2010 10:33 AM

No gains without pains !

With Sarath Fonseka in prison, our country talks about rehabilitation and forgiveness. Gimme a break!

pj Wednesday, 15 September 2010 09:56 AM

Share holders of the LTTE are free birds,innocent civilans are behind bars for years.!

Ryan Wednesday, 15 September 2010 09:39 AM

Pls keep sarath fonseka jailed as he is a danger to civilised society.

Dinesh Wednesday, 15 September 2010 09:37 AM

Telemachus Wednesday, 15 September 2010 09:31 AM

Our society is such that crooks/murderers/anti-social elements do always enjoy a good life irrespective of the sides they take?

Quel dommage!

good..good..next k.p will launch a t.v station in Colombo

malkanthi Wednesday, 15 September 2010 09:30 AM

Forgiveness is a very good gesture if applicable to all persons irrespective of their political view point.
