Prabhakaran Watching His Dead Body!

Prabhakaran dead

The speculation which stated that Prabhakaran has died seems to be fading out as a picture of him watching the news broadcasting about his death as well as holding a newspaper reporting about him being dead is spreading rapidly all over. Until now, I am still unsure about the picture as who knows, the above picture might be a doctored photograph as well. I even tried zooming in just incase If I could find any pixelated corners but to no avail. Well, if he is really still alive, then it would be good news to all those ardent global LTTE supporters who were initially fooled about his death. We shall wait and see the outcome of this.

kamunting

‘They threw me out of Kamunting’
Humayun Kabir | May 9, 09 5:18pm
P Uthayakumar, the last of the five Hindraf leaders to be released today, claimed that he was thrown out of the Kamunting Detention Camp after he refused to give in to pressures from the prison authorities to sign the conditional release papers in exchange for his freedom.

Recollecting the events that transpired inside the Kamunting prison before he was freed this afternoon, Uthayakumar said the prison officials had dragged him out of the camp and thrown him into the prison van following his repeated refusal to sign the conditional papers.

“I stressed that there must be no conditional release. Otherwise, I would continue to stay here,” he told journalists and about 100 Hindraf supporters at the gate of the Kamunting Detention Camp, Perak, where he was held for 18 months under ISA detention.

According to him, his ordeal started at 8am when prison officials came to his cell and told him to get ready for his release in the afternoon.

He told the prison officers that he was ready to leave only if there were no preset conditions to his release.

Subsequently, Uthayakumar refused to listen to the various requests by the prison authorities to agree to his conditional freedom.

Uthayakumar also claimed that he was tricked into seeing the prison director who said the he could sign a release order instead of the conditional papers.

“However, when I got into his office, the director gave me the conditional release papers (to sign). Again, I refused."

The Hindraf leader said when an officer read out the clauses of his conditional release papers, he closed both his ears with his hands.

"After that, a guy forcibly took me out of the office and threw me into a prison van,” said Uthayakumar.

In the melee, Uthayakumar said he hurt his right leg, near his damaged toe for which he had earlier sought treatment while in detention.

It is learnt that the release of the other Hindraf leaders today are subject to a number of conditions, including being barred from speaking at public functions.

‘I’m wearing the same blue pants’

Uthayakumar said he feared that he could be forced to sign the conditional release papers before he even reaches home today.
“I was told that Special Branch (officers) are waiting for me to take me to Brickfields police station to sign the papers. But I will not bow to this,” he said.

“If they force me, I will not do it as I prefer going back to Kamunting prison,” he vowed.

Uthayakumar also said he was grateful for the support given by his family members, supporters and friends who had campaigned relentlessly for his release from the camp.

However, he refused to express gratitude to the government for freeing him after “514 days behind bars”.

“I won’t thank the government because I should have been brought to court in the first place and given a fair trial. But this procedure was not followed,” said Uthayakumar, who appeared haggard.

Uthayakumar and his family later went to Sri Maha Mariamal temple near Kamunting for prayers where he gave another speech to about 100 people who had gathered there.

The lawyer, who has not combed his hair nor shaved his beard since the day of his arrest on Dec 13, 2007, conceded that he may “look like a mad man”.

“Since Day One, I have grown this beard and hair, and I vowed never to shave it off (until his release).

"And these are the same blue pants that I have been wearing ever since," he added, showing his shabby prison trousers.

Nevertheless, he said the detention had made him wiser and gave him inner strength to meet new challenges ahead and he has a few ideas on improving the livelihood of the Indian community.

At about 4.30pm, Uthayakumar along with his family left Kamunting for his mother’s house in Seremban.

Protest

Uthaya: No more protests


KUALA LUMPUR: No more street protests – that’s the promise of Hindraf leader P. Uthayakumar who was released from ISA detention on Saturday.

“Armed struggle is out of the question,” Uthayakumar told The Associated Press.

But he vowed to carry on his struggle through a “landmark plan” he crafted in prison, which he said would force the Government to address the grievances of Indians, including lack of jobs, poor living conditions, decrepit schools and greater religious freedom.

He refused to elaborate on the plan, except to say that it was a strategic 50-page proposal that involved “social” solutions. He said he would reveal it in four to six weeks.

It would make “not only the Government (but) also the opposition” work for the Indian community, he said.

Meanwhile, in Kuala Lumpur DAP adviser and Ipoh Timur MP Lim Kit Siang told a press conference that Home Minister Datuk Seri Hishammuddin Tun Hussein should revoke all the conditions imposed on Hindraf’s legal adviser and Kota Alam Shah assemblyman M. Manoharan and the other four leaders – Uthayakumar, L, Vasanthakumar, Ganapathi Rao and R. Kenghadharan – on their ISA release as the minister had said that they were no longer a threat to the country.

TAIPING: The three remaining Hindu Rights Action Force (Hindraf) leaders were released from the Kamunting detention centre in here yesterday, after 514 days of incarceration under the Internal Security Act and about a month after their two fellow leaders were released.


P. Uthayakumar was the last to leave the detention centre.

Hindraf legal adviser P. Uthayakumar, who was the last to leave the centre at 2.55pm, said police wanted him to agree to a conditional release but he covered his ears, refusing to hear the conditions or to sign any document.

"Even if it means putting me back here, so be it... I'll come back here.

"But I will not agree to any conditions because I have not done anything wrong.

"I fought for the interest of the people through legal and peaceful means at all times," he said a few metres away from the gates of the detention centre.
Uthayakumar thanked his fiancee S. Indradevi, lawyers and supporters but said he would not thank the government as his detention was unlawful.

He also complained that the prison officials were rough with him, pointing to injuries on the left foot.

Uthayakumar said he would continue to fight for Hindraf but would have to consult supporters on whether to hold public gatherings.

Earlier, seven men, believed to be ISA detainees from Indonesia and the Philippines, were brought out from the detention centre in an immigration van at about 12.40pm, followed by three other local ISA detainees in a van at 1.20pm.

Two other Hindraf leaders, Kota Alam Shah assemblyman M. Manoharan and K. Vasantha Kumar, were also freed at 2.30pm, and were driven out in separate cars.

Upon his arrival in Klang, more than a hundred supporters of Manoharan, including his wife S. Pushpaneela, who waited outside the gates of the Klang district police station to welcome him, went home disappointed as he was whisked away via a rear exit.

Manoharan, who was scheduled to arrive at the police station at 3pm arrived only at 5.35pm escorted by two police cars.

The car went immediately into the police station compound and the gate was closed and was heavily guarded by more than 10 policemen to prevent supporters from entering the compound.

Pushpaneela arrived at 6pm followed by state executive councillors Ronnie Liu, Dr Xavier Jayakumar, Teresa Kok and Klang member of parliament Charles Santiago.

At 6.45pm the supporters, including reporters and photographers who have been waiting since 3pm, were informed that Manoharan had already left half-an-hour earlier and was on his way to his home in Bandar Kinrara, Puchong.

Liu, who was the first state executive councillor to arrive was disappointed that Manoharan was not allowed to meet his supporters.

"This is not right. Manoharan is an elected representative and he should be allowed to at least meet his supporters for a short while," he said outside the police station.

Vasantha Kumar's mother R. Manomani said her son's release was the best Mothers Day present.

She had waited outside the Kamunting Centre gate since 8am yesterday before, Vasantha Kumar, 36, was released.

"I am very happy today because my son is released and I am shedding tears of joy."

Manomani from Sungai Petani, Kedah, said she was informed of her son's release by her daughter-in-law, K. Vickneswary, on Friday night.

"I thank all Malaysians who fought for our release.

"It is by their effort that I'm a free man today," said Vasantha Kumar upon his arrival at his home in Taman Cheras Permai, Kuala Lumpur, at 6.25pm yesterday.

He was earlier taken to the Kajang police headquarters for documentation purposes.

At his house, he was greeted by some 40 people, including relatives, who chanted "Vasantha Kumar Valga" (Long live Vasantha Kumar).

The family then arranged a "cleansing" ceremony for him, by pouring a bucket of water filled with flower petals to ward off bad luck.

A while later, Vasantha Kumar spoke to the press through his wife, K. Vickneswary, 36, because one of the 15 conditions for his release from Kamunting prohibits him from making press statements.

"It is through all your (Malaysians') efforts that the government has released us. I will continue to provide a voice to the voiceless," the wife said on his behalf.

About 15 plainclothes policemen were also present.

The five Hindraf leaders, including V. Ganabatirau and R. Kenghadharan, who were released on April 5, were held since Dec 13, 2007 for being involved in protests which saw tens of thousands of Indians taking to the streets.

On Friday, Home Minister Datuk Seri Hishammuddin Hussein announced the release of the 13 detainees.

This is the second batch of ISA detainees to be released since Datuk Seri Najib Razak became prime minister.
