a pioneer in the anti terror movement . the books authored by him are truly comprehensive on the subject of Ltte terror. Fearless ,factual,learned and original writer and orator who influenced the then muddled Sri Lankan society and galvanized them into action in protecting the country against terrorism.we have lost a national asset.
