Body identified: Bodyguard of Tiger political wing man

The body found outside a leading school in Bambalapitiya, Colombo 4 on Friday has been identified as of the one time bodyguard of former LTTE Batticaloa political wing leader Kaushalyan.

The victim was identified as Kanapathipillai Udayakanthan, 38, a resident of Kallaru, Batticaloa. He was identified by his father. He served as the body guard of Kaushalyan in the 2000 – 2004 period and thereafter fled to Britain and settled down there with his family there.

However, two years ago he had returned to the island and was involved in a business of sending persons overseas. Police said they believed that he was killed elsewhere and the body dumped in Bambalapitiya.
