Was Sooriyamoorthy killing a warning to Anandasangaree?

The dastardly killing of former Trincomalee Urban Council chairman Periyappodi Sooriyamoorthy by the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam is an unmistakable warning signal to Tamil United Liberation Front President Veerasingham Anandasangaree. Though Sooriyamoorthy has sported different party colours at different stages of his political career the man was primarily a Sangaree loyalist and trusted confidante. He threw in his lot with Sangaree despite the danger and contested Parliament elections last year in Jaffna on the Independent list fielded under the padlock symbol by Anandasangaree. He has been associating with Sangaree for more than three decades.
