Investigative Report by Hassina Leelarathna
‘Nothing international about the all-Tamil ‘International Medical Health Organization’(IMHO)
IMHO is spreading LTTE propaganda, raising funds, establishing conduits to support LTTE – under guise of ‘healing & reconciliation’
· IMHO’s ‘material support’ to LTTE included ‘Thileepan medical centers’ and ambulances that were operated by the Tigers.
· IMHO board members are also TRO operatives and run other LTTE fronts such as the Tamils of Northern California (TNC). Documented evidence shows hundreds of thousands of dollars being given to the TRO by TNC and other fronts.
· IMHO is not a registered NGO in Sri Lanka. It ‘partnered’ with Centre for Healthcare (CHC) in LTTE ‘capital’ Killinochchi and now claims to be partnering with the Consortium of Humanitarian Agencies (CHA) – which works hand in glove with Norwegian NGOs Berghof Foundation and FORUT whose directors have been deported for working with the LTTE to undermine Sri Lanka’s sovereignty.
IMHO founder Sujanthy Rajaram spread LTTE propaganda by alleging ‘chemical warfare by Sri Lankan military’ on the website of ‘Tamils for Obama’ – identified by KP alias Kumaran Pathmanathan as another LTTE front that supported the Obama campaign.
GOSL & the Sri Lankan mission in Los Angeles have refused to endorse IMHO’s fundraiser to be held August 22 in Southern California.
