" JUDGMENT

1. Section 3 of the Unlawful Activities ( Prevention) Act, 1967 ( hereinafter referred to as' the Act' ) empowers the Central Government to declare any association to be unlawful if it is of the opinion that such ansociation is , or has become, an unlawful association . 'Unlawful Association ' is defined in Section 2( g) of the Act which, inter alia, stipulates that an association would be an unlawful association which has for its object any unlawful activity , or which encourages or aids persons to undertake any unlawful activity , or of which the members undertake such activity . What constitutes 4

[PART II SEC . 3 (ii)] THE GAZETTE OF INDIA : EXTRAORDINARY

an ' unlawful activity ' is defined in Section 2( f) of the Act, which is in the

following terms : -

"2 . Definitions . In this Act , unless the context otherwise requires , -

XX XX XX

or (f) "unlawful activity, " in relation to an individual association, means any action taken by such individual or association (whether by committing an act or by words , either spoken or written, or by signs or by visible representation or otherwise) , -

(i) which is intended , or supports any claim to bring about, on any ground whatsoever , the cession of a part of the territory of India or the secession of a part of the territory of India from the Union , or which incites any individual or group of individuals to bring about such cession or secession;

(ii) which disclaims , questions , disrupts or is intended to disrupt the sovereignty and territorial integrity of India;

2. Thus , if an association is undertaking any unlawful activity , as defined in Section 2 ( f) of the Act, such an association can be declared an unlawful association under Section 3 of the Act by the Central Government . While declaring a particular association to be unlawful , notification has to be issued in the Official Gazette and such a notification has to specify the grounds on which it is issued and it may also specify such other particulars as the Central Government may consider necessary . However , it may not be required to disclose those facts in the notification which it considers to be against the public interest to disclose .

3 . In exercise of the powers conferred by sub - section ( 1 ) of Section 3 of the Act, the Central Government has issued Notification No. 710(E ) dated 14th May 2006 , whereby the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (for short , 'LTTE' ) has been declared as an unlawful association. This Notification is reproduced below : - भारत का राजपत्र असाधारण

[भाग II- खण्ड 3 ( ii) ]

" S.O. 710(E) . -- Whereas the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (hereinafter referred to as the LTTE) , is an association actually based in Sri Lanka but having sympathizers , supporters and agents on the Indian soil;

And whereas the LTTE's objective for a separate homeland ( Tamil Eelam) for all tamils threatens the sovereignty and territorial integrity of India, and amounts to cession and secession of a part of the territory of India from the Union and thus falls within the ambit of an unlawful activity;

And whereas , the turbulence in Sri Lanka is being exploited by pro - LTTE forces to draw up support for the LTTE and its cause by taking out processions , demonstrations , etc. , in spite of the ban causing disquiet and threat to the security of the State of Tamil Nadu;

And whereas most of the criminal cases involving the LTTE and pro-LTTE groups like Tamil National Retrieval Troops (TNRT) , Tamil Nadu Liberation Army (TNLA ) and Tamiliar Pasarai , have ended in conviction but the Tamil Eelam concept still remains as a goal among the pro -LTTE groups in Tamil Nadu . The forces are still at work to further its cause thereby contributing to the vulnerable milieu in which the LTTE's free functioning in India as a lawful association, if allowed, would be highly detrimental to the sovereignty and territorial integrity of India;

And whereas the LTTE continues to be an extremely potent, most lethal and well -organized terrorist force in Sri Lanka and has strong connections in Tamil Nadu and certain pockets of southern India. The LTTE continues to use the State of Tamil Nadu as the base for carrying out smuggling of essential items like petrol and diesel , besides drugs to Sri Lanka;

And whereas the LTTE will continue to remain a strong terrorist movement and stimulate the secessionist sentiment to enhance the support base of the LTTE in Tamil Nadu as long as Sri Lanka continues to remain in a state of ethnic strife torn by the demand for Tamil Eelam which finds a strong echo in Tamil Nadu due to the linguistic, cultural , ethnic and historical affinity between the Sri Lankan, Tamils and the Indian Tamils in Sri Lanka;

And whereas for the reasons aforesaid, the Central Government is ofthe opinion that the LTTE is an unlawful association and there is a continuing strong need to control all such separatist activities by all possible means ;

And whereas the Central Government has the information that-

(i ) enquiries on the activities of the LTTE cadres, dropouts , sympathizers who have been traced out recently in the State of 6

THE GAZETTE OF INDIA : EXTRAORDINARY

[PART II-SEC. 3 (ii)]

Tamil Nadu would suggest that the cadres sent to Tamil Nadu would ultimately be utilized by the LTTE for unlawful activities;

( ii ) the activities of pro - LTTE organizations and individuals have come to notice in India, despite the ban in force and attempts have been made by these forces to extend their support to the LTTE;

( iii ) the LTTE leaders have been cynical of India's policy on their organization and reaction of the State machinery in curbing their activities;

And whereas the Central Government is of the opinion that the aforesaid activities of the LTTE continue to pose threat to , and are detrimental to, the sovereignty and territorial integrity of India as also public order and, therefore, should be declared as an unlawful association;

And whereas the Central Government is further of the opinion that because ( i) of its continued violent and disruptive activities prejudicial to the integrity and sovereignty of India; ( ii ) it continues to adopt a strong anti - India posture and also continues to pose a grave threat to the security of Indian nationals , it is necessary to declare the LTTE as "anUnlawful association " with immediate effect;

Now, therefore , in exercise of the powers conferred by sub - section (1 ) and proviso to sub - section (3 ) of Section 3 of the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act, 1967 (37 of 1967) , the Central Government hereby declares the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (the LTTE) as an unlawful association and directs that this notification shall, subject to any order that may be made under Section 4 of the said Act , have effect on and from the date of its publication in the Official Gazette . "

4 The Act further requires the Central Government to refer the Notification to the Tribunal constituted under Section 5 ( 1 ) of the Act, within 30 days from the date of publication of the Notification under Section 3 (1 ) of the Act, for the purpose of adjudicating whether or not there is sufficient cause for declaring the association unlawful . As obligated under sub - section ( 1 ) of Section 4 of the Act , Notification No. 849 (E ) dated 2nd June 2006 has been referred to this Tribunal for the purpose of adjudicating as to whether or not there is sufficient cause for declaring the association as unlawful . As 7

[भाग II - खण्ड 3 (ii) ]

required by Rule 5 of the Rules framed under the Act, the Central Government, along with the Reference , also forwarded the resume regarding the aims , objectives and activities of the LTTE . The Constitution of People's Front of Liberation Tigers , the front organization of the LTTE, was also enclosed with the Reference . The Reference also indicates the cases registered and the arrests made for the unlawful activities of the LTTE and pro-LTTE elements/groups in Tamil Nadu since May 2004. It is in view of the aforesaid Notification that this Tribunal has gone through the exercise of the adjudication as ultimately it is for this Tribunal to find out as to whether there is sufficient cause for declaring the association unlawful..

5. On receipt of the said Notification, preliminary hearing was held by this Tribunal on 17th June 2006 when it was directed that notice be issued to the LTTE under sub- section (2) of Section 4 of the Act , returnable on 31st July 2006, inasmuch as under Section 4 (2) of the Act, the Tribunal is to call upon the association in writing to showcause , within 30 days from the date of service of such notice , why the association should not be declared unlawful . It was reported that there is no particular address of the LTTE in India, therefore , direction was given to publish the notice in The Indian Express and The Hindu in Tamil Nadu and Delhi editions and one issue of daily newspaper published in Tamil language in Tamil Nadu. It was also directed that notices be published in two leading newspapers in Sri Lanka either in 'Island' , ' Virakesari' , 'Daily News ' or ' Thinakaran Sunday Observer' . As the International Secretariat of the LTTE is stated to be 8

[PART II-SEC. 3 (ii))

located at Eelam House, 202 , Long Lane, London SE14QB , it was further directed that notices be also issued to the LTTE on the aforesaid address and be published in the leading newspaper ' Times' in the United Kingdom as well . In addition, direction was given to affix the notice at a conspicuous part of the office of the LTTE , if any, and a copy of the same be also served upon the office bearer, if any, by registered post or otherwise . The Central Government was directed to take steps for publishing the notices in the aforesaid manner within two weeks and file Service Report with the Registrar of the Tribunal , duly supported by affidavits of the concerned officials . Standing counsel for the State of Tamil Nadu , Chennai was also issued notice of the hearings by the Tribunal . It was directed that the next sitting of the Tribunal shall take place on 31st July 2006.

6. In the hearing held on 31st July 2006, the representative of the Central Government informed that in compliance with the orders dated 17th June 2006, notices by publication had been served upon the ETTE . Affidavit of Mr. Randhir Singh , Under Secretary ( IS - III ) , Ministry of Home Affairs , Government of India, New Delhi was filed. It is stated in this affidavit that Ministry of External Affairs and Directorate of Advertising and Visual Publicity were forwarded the necessary documents .

In addition , High Commission had also engaged a private company Britannia Support Services Ltd. , London to serve the notice on the LTTE on the [ भाग II- खण्ड 3 ( ii ) ]

9 designated address . Their replies were , however , awaited . In any case , notice had been published in the UK newspaper , namely ' Times ' dated 7.7.2006. Mr. Suresh Kait , learned standing counsel appearing for the Union of India assured that by the next date the affidavit of service of notice through UKCA as well as Britannia Support Services Ltd. , London shall be filed along with a copy of the newspaper 'Times ' dated 7.7.2006 where notice is stated to be published . It is further stated in the affidavit of Mr. Randhir Singh that notices have been published in 'Daily News' and 'Virakesari ' on 8.7.2006 in Sri Lanka. Copies of these newspaper reports containing the aforesaid notice were also directed to be filed on the next date of hearing . Directorate of Advertising and Visual Publicity has published the showcause notice in 'The Indian Express ' and 'The Hindu' on 28.6.2006 ( Delhi Edition) . Copies of these publications are filed with the affidavit as Annexure- III. Government of Tamil Nadu has also got the notice published in 'The Hindu' and 'The Indian Express' ( Tamil Nadu Edition) dated 28.6.2006 and Tamil Daily 'Dinamani' dated 27.6.2006 which are enclosed with the said affidavit along with letter dated 30.6.2006 of the Government of Tamil Nadu . However , affidavit dated 28.8.2006 was filed by Mr. Randhir Singh , Under Secretrary ( IS - III ) , Ministry of Home Affairs , Government of India, stating that the Ministry of External Affairs , vide their letter dated 17.8.2006 , has stated that the UK Home Office has expressed their inability to deliver documents as the building was seen derelict and appeared to have been empty for considerable time . Further , letter addressed to the International Secretariat , LTTE , has been 3900 GI/2006-2 10

THEGAZETTE OF INDIA: EXTRAORDINARY

[PART II-SEC . 3( ii) ] returned with the observations ' address incomplete' . However, Britannia Support Services Ltd. , London , could serve the documents through the mail box of 202, Long Lane, London SE14QB and by affixing copies of 1: documents to the doors of the building on 11.7.2006 . Copies of the newspaper clippings of 'The Times ', UK dated 7.7.2006 and 'Virakesari ' of Sri Lanka dated 8.7.2006 are also filed with the affidavit as Annexures 2, 3 & 4 respectively . Notice to the Standing Counsel for the State of Tamil Nadu , Chennai was also served and he entered appearance . Though the notice was served in every possible manner to the LTTE, nobody appeared on their behalf and it did not show cause either . However, even in the absence of any such cause shown by the association , the Tribunal is required to hold inquiry in the manner specified in Section 9 of the Act and decide whether or not there is sufficient cause for declaring the association to be unlawful . Therefore , this Tribunal proceeded with such an inquiry in accordance with the procedure laid down in Section 9 of the Act.

7. In order to support the action that there were sufficient reasons for issuing Notification under Section 3 ( 1 ) of the Act declaring LTTE as an unlawful association, the affidavit of Mr. Randhir Singh, Under Secretary ( IS - III ) , Ministry of Home Affairs , Government of India has been filed . Mr. S. David Devasirvatham , Superintendent of Police , ' Q' Branch ( CID) , Tamil Nadu, also tendered his affidavit . Whereas Mr. Davidson was examined as PW-1 on 13th August 2006 , Mr. Randhir Singh was examined as PW - 2 on 25th October 2006. Both these witnesses tendered in evidence their respective affidavits and proved various documents filed along with the

1 11

भारत का राजपत्र: असाधारण

[ भाग II- खण्ड 3 ( ii) ]

affidavits , which were exhibited by marking various exhibits . Since nobody appeared on behalf of the LTTE even on these hearings , there was no cross - examination of these witnesses .

8. The arguments were thereafter heard on 27th October 2006 when Mr. Suresh Kait , assisted by Mr.Shailendra Sharma, presented the case on behalf of the Central Government and Mr. Babu Muthu Meeran with Mr. J.C. Durai Raj and Mr. Hasan Mohd. Jinnah , Advocates , made their submissions on behalf of the State of Tamil Nadu .

9. In the testimony of the aforesaid two witnesses , supported by various documents , it has come on record that , for the first time, the Government of India had issued Notification No. 330 (E) dated 14.5.1992 declaring LTTE as an unlawful association under the Act for a period of two years from 14.5.1992 . This notification was upheld by this Tribunal to which the Reference was made for the purpose of adjudication as to whether or not there was sufficient cause for declaring the LTTE as an unlawful association. Thereafter , this ban was extended successively after every two years vide Notifications dated 14.5.1994, 14.5.1996, 14.5.1998, 14.5.2000 , 14.5.2002, and 14.5.2004. The Tribunals constituted every time , making reference in respect of all these notifications , have confirmed the declaration made in those notifications . Therefore , LTTE is declared as an unlawful association under the Act since 14.5.1992, which ban has been extended from time to time . By means of the present Notification No. 710 (E) dated 14.5.2006 , this ban is extended for a further period of two years .

THE GAZETTE OF INDIA : EXTRAORDINARY

[PART II-SEC. 3(ii) ]

Thus, the effect of the aforesaid notifications, as confirmed, would be that the activities of the LTTE are treated as unlawful and prejudicial to the security and integrity of the State of Tamil Nadu and the Union of India as a whole . From these notifications and orders passed by the Tribunals constituted thereon, following background material surfaces on record: -

(a) The Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) was originally formed in 1974 as Liberation Tigers . It took its present name in 1976. The LTTE declared its ultimate objective as "Total Liberation of its homeland and the establishment of an independent , sovereign socialist State of Tamil Nadu .

(b ) In the course of its growth, LTTE has been able to carve out a well- knit infrastructure and has methodically brought up its organizational structure, which has been able to sustain years of armed struggle against the Sri Lankan army. LTTE has created political , military, medical and intelligence wings with higher hierarchical system and assigned explicitly spelt out roles to its functionaries . The overall in charge of LTTE is Vellupillai Prabhakaran @ Karikalan . Pottu Amman is the chief of LTTE's Intelligence Wing. Kapil Amman being the Chief of the Internal Wing with responsibility for overall administration of both Internal and external wings .

(c) Since early 1989 , the LTTE has been using Tamil Nadu as a launching pad for its operation in Sri Lanka . The situation became ominous in 1989-90 when the LTTE cadres started infiltrating into the State under the guise of refugees . Those injured in the fighting in Sri Lanka also found the State to be a safe heaven for their treatment and welfare .

The outfit continues to use Tamil Nadu as a base for securing its logistical requirements .

14 13 [ भाग II - खण्ड 3 (ii) ]

भारत का राजपत्र : असाधारण

(d) Apart from infiltration in the garb of refugees, the LTTE cadres found it very convenient to have access to interior places in the State of Tamil Nadu through various land routes emanating from as many as 500 odd landing places in the coastal areas of Thanjavur , Pudukottai and Ramanathapuram districts . Boats were being used for bringing the cadres/leaders to the landing points from where transportation to various places is without any problem as they could conveniently procure adequate number of vehicles through their local contacts and associates . These sea and land routes are also used for smuggling purposes and supply lines . Medicines, clothing, arms , ammunitions , explosives and provisions are being smuggled out to other LTTE bases in Sri Lanka . Smuggling of gold into India for the cash requirements and in supplementing their revenues has been continuing.

(e) In order to sustain these smuggling and other clandestine operations , the LTTE had set up an effective network of Radio W.T. Communication between Sri Lanka and Tamil Nadu and also within the State . LTTE cadres started using sympathetic locals , particularly those with impressionable minds , for assisting the former in their various tasks . This created a close nexus between the LTTE cadres and gullible locals who were being closely injected with the poison of secession through terror means .

10. In view thereof, it may not be necessary to dwell into a deeper scrutiny of the matter and purpose would be served in finding as to whether the opinion of the Central Government expressed in Notification dated 14.5.2006 for extending the ban is proper or not . What, therefore , would be required to be seen is as to whether there is sufficient material of the 14

THE GAZETTE OF INDIA : EXTRAORDINARY

[PART II-SEC . 3 (ii)]

activities of the LTTE during the last two years i.e. from 14.5 2004 to 14.5.2006 warranting extension of the ban. Though the LTTE is an organization which is originally formed in Sri Lanka with primary activity in that country, what prompted the Central Government to declare it as an unlawful association was the impact of its activities in India and ! 1 particularly in the State of Tamil Nadu which would come within the mischief of the unlawful activity as defined in Section 2 (f) of the Act . It is because of this reason that in the Notification No. 710 (E) dated 14.5.2006, the Central Government has opined that the LTTE has persisted with its violent and disruptive activities prejudicial to the integrity and sovereignty of India and after coming to the opinion that the aforesaid activities of LTTE continue to pose threat to and are detrimental to the sovereignty of India as also public order and having come to the opinion that -

i) these continued violent and disruptive activities are prejudicial to the integrity and sovereignty of India, and

ii) it continues to adopt a strong anti - India posture and also continues to pose a great threat to the security of the Indian nationals , it was necessary to declare that LTTE as an unlawful association with immediate effect, declared the LTTE to be an unlawful association for a further period of two years from 14.05.2006.

11. In this backdrop , it is emphasized in the affidavit of Mr. Randhir Singh that one may have to first look into the objectives of the LTTE which speak out the minds of the activists in the said organization . It is pointed out that the 15

भारत का राजपत्र: असाधारण

[भाग II- खण्ड 3 (ii)]

Constitution of People's Front of Liberation Tigers ( PFLT) , the political front of LTTE , includes , inter alia, the following objectives : -

a) to fight for the right of self- determination of the Tamils and Muslims; and

b) to protect and preserve the geographical identity and integrity of the traditional homelands of the Tamils and Muslims .

12. What is sought to be highlighted is that the intention behind the aforesaid objectives is that irrespective of geographical distinction , the purpose and the larger objective is to include Tamil areas of India while talking about the homelands of Tamils and their right of self determination, though the immediate struggle of the LTTE is against the Government of Sri Lanka. Thus , the ultimate objective is to include the Tamil areas of India thereby posing a serious threat to the sovereignty and territorial integrity of India . It is for this reason, the affidavit further mentions that the activities of LTTE and pro- LTTE groups require constant vigil and monitoring . Sympathy for the Tamil Eelam concept still remains and the forces are still at work to further the cause of separate Tamil Nadu i.e. secession from India, for which they are drawing inspiration and sustenance from LTTE. In order to control these secessionist foras , it is extremely important to continue to exercise strict control over the activities of LTTE and to ensure that their militant activities do not re -emerge in Tamil Nadu, in any potent manner . The LTTE has created the Tamil National Retrieval Troops ( TNRT) , Tamil Nadu Liberation Army (TNLA) and Tamiliar Passarai , secessionist organizations in Tamil Nadu , in furtherance of its objective , 16

THE GAZETTE OF INDIA : EXTRAORDINARY

[PART II-SEC. 3 ( i))

seeking secession of Tamil Nadu which is highly prejudicial to India's sovereignty and territorial integrity. LTTE cadres/ sympathizers/drop-outs are arriving in Tamil Nadu despite the existing ban . In case the ban is lifted, their activities would increase to the detriment of the security of the State . The chauvinist forces in support of LTTE would be emboldened to indulge in anti - national activities , paving the way for the secession of Tamil Nadu . Their indulgence in illegal activities openly with the tacit support of the chauvinist forces cannot be ruled out . If the present ban is not extended, the chances of infiltration by the LTTE into the State would pose a grave threat to the sovereignty and territorial integrity of India .

13 . The material , on the basis of which extension of ban by issuing the Notification in question is justified, can be classified into the following :

A) the criminal cases which were registered prior to May 2004, but ended in conviction during the period after May 2004 and before the issuance of the present notification ;

B) fresh cases registered during the period in question, i.e. May 2004 to May 2006, and some of these cases have already resulted in conviction; and

C) the various speeches given by the sympathizers , supporters and agents of LTTE on Indian soil, including the pamphlets and posters circulated and pasted, and the newspaper reports giving account of such speeches , etc.

A. Criminal cases which were registered prior to May 2004, but ended in conviction during the period after May 2004 and before the issuance of the present notification 17

From the following incidents it is trite to urge that demand of LTTE for Tamil Eelam concept finds a strong echo in Tamil Nadu due to linguistic , cultural, ethnic and historical affinity between the Sri Lankan Tamils and the Indian Tamils in Sri Lanka and the pro - LTTE groups will always try to stimulate the secessionist sentiments and enhance their support base for LTTE in Tamil Nadu ..

the interests of India and Sri Lanka. The "Policy of drift" on the part of India and Sri Lanka should stop and the Sea Tigers had to be neutralized.

The Sea Tigers had emerged as a credible fighting force in recent years and a large part of the Sri Lankan side of the Palk Bay was under its control , he said ( The Asian Tribune - 4.6.2004)

ii) Frustrated with the shifting stand ofthe Sri Lankan Government on the issue of discussing the Interim Self Governing Authority (ISGA) for the Tamil North Eastern Province (NEP) , and the undercover attempts to drive a wedge between Eastern and Northern Tamils , the LTTE has hinted that it may have to resume hostilities .

iii) The leader of the LTTE , in his annual Heroes ' Day statement on 27.11.2005 made an urgent appeal to the new Sri Lanka Government to offer a reasonable political solution to the ethnic conflict without further delay. The Tamil Tiger leader cautioned the Government that whis liberation organization would intensify the struggle for self- siw determination and political independence if the new regime adopts a hard- line position and fails to resolve the problems of his people .

On the basis of the aforesaid material furnished in the evidence of the two witnesses in the form of number of criminal cases registered against the 41. activities of LTTE, pro - LTTE elements as well as Tamil Chauvinist Groups as well as various other activities which have been noted above and also number of speeches and utterances in the form of pamphlets and posters etc. , it is pleaded that the ban needs to be continued since the Act is an important tool available to the law enforcement agencies for controlling such activities . During the course of the arguments , it was revealed that Intelligence Agencies (IA) has been submitting confidential reports of hotlo od stigaod certain period to the Ministry of Home Affairs , Government of India about the activities of Sri Lankan Tamil Terrorists' Group including LTTE in India. Copies of some of the reports were produced before me during arguments . These reports revealed that IA is closely monitoring the activities of these groups including LTTE. It is not necessary to state in detail of these reports disclosed; it would suffice to mention that as per 3900 GI/2006 8 54

these reports even certain leaders belonging to some of the political parties and Tamil Chauvinist groups have been expressing support for the LTTE and eulogizing its leaders , while speaking in public meetings and other forms of programmes . As per these reports there have been spurt in the activities of the supporters of LTTE in last few months and some FIRs have also been registered against few persons . Another disturbing feature, which is revealed in the reports , is that there is a spurt of Sri Lankan Tamil Refugees who have been coming to India which may have various implications . Thus justification of further ban on LTTE is claimed on the following grounds :

i) The LTTE, an extremely potent terrorist organization in Sri Lanka , has a strong potentiality in Tamil Nadu and certain pockets of southern India due to linguistic , cultural , ethnic , historical and geographical affinity between the Tamils in India and those in Sri Lanka . The LTTE continues to look at Tamil Nadu as a base for carrying out anti - India activities . The organisation assiduously cultivates the Tamil Chauvinist elements who are inspired by the Tamil Eelam concept of a separate Tamil Nadu i.e. secession from India .

Despite the efforts being made for peace talks , the LTTE is yet to give up violence as a means to achieve its ultimate goal of an 'Tamil Eelam' . In this milieu, the separatist Tamil chauvinist groups and pro -LTTE groups in Tamil Nadu and elsewhere in the country will foster a separatist tendency amongst the masses and enhance the support base for the organization in India leading to strong dis- integrating influence over the territorial integrity of India. The LTTE continues to indulge in smuggling of essential items including petrol , diesel and life saving drugs by using Indian Territory.

Some of LTTE cadres/ sympathizers/drop - outs are arriving in Tamil Nadu despite the existing ban . If the ban were to be lifted, their activities would increase to the detriment of the security of the State and the chances of infiltration by the LTTE into the State would pose a grave threat to the sovereignty and territorial integrity of India.

iv) Tamilar Desiya Iyakkam ( TDI ) having objective of supporting the cause of Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam and to attain self- determination for all States including Tamil Nadu was declared as ' Unlawful Association ' under Section 15 (2) (b) and 16( 1 ) of the Criminal Law (Amendment) Act, 1908 ( Central Act 14 of 1908) vide the State Government Notification in letter No. SS.I/457-2/2002 dated 13.8.2002 and the same is still in force .

v) The Tamil Nadu Liberation Army ( TNLA) and Tamil National Retrieval Troops (TNRT) , the pro - LTTE organizations , supporting the cause of Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam and to attain self- determination for all States including Tamil Nadu were banned under Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Amendment Act, 2004 on 21,9.2004 as terrorist organizations and also declared as ' Unlawful Associations' by the State Govt . under Section 15(2) (b) and 16( 1 ) of the Criminal Law (Amendment) Act, 1908 ( Central Act 14 of 1908) and the same are still in force .

vi) In various public meetings and conferences, the organizers/ speakers indulged in hailing the struggle of the LTTE and its leader Prabhakaran and praised the LTTE that their liberation struggle is a holy one and it should not be denigrated . The undercurrent of this Tamil chauvinist secessionist ideology is being exploited by the 56

[PART SEC. 3 (ii)

LTTE to propagate the concept of Greater Eelam. Similarly, the turbulence in Sri Lanka is being exploited by these pro- LITE and Tamil chauvinist forces to drum up support for LITTE and is cause by taking out processions , demonstrations , etc. inspite of the ban, causing disquiet and threat to the security of the State.

vii) The Government of Tamil Nadu has further intimated that cases were registered under the Unlawful Activities ( Prevention ) Act, 1967 against pro- LTTE elements and chauvinist groups between March , 2004 and January, 2006 besides under the provisions of the Indian Penal Code , Explosive Substances Act , etc. All these , especially the cases registered under the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act, 1967 have enabled a better control over the militant activities in the State as a consequence of which the State remained peaceful by and large and free from violent militant activities .

viji ) Anti -national and terrorists activities of the LTTE have been vividly detailed in the adjudication proceedings of the Hon'ble Tribunals constituted under the Unlawful Activities (Prevention ) Act, 1967. It has been stated that so long as Sri Lanka continues to be in a state of ethnic strife, ripped by the demand for the Tamil Eelam , it will continue to find a strong echo in Tamil Nadu due to linguistic, cultural , ethnic , historical and geographical affinity between the Tamils in India and Sri Lanka .

15. The Tribunal constituted under Section 4 ( 1 ) of the Act on the last occasion vide notification dated 14th May, 2004 had confirmed the declaration made in the said notification issued by the Central Government. While analyzing similar kind of material and taking note of the activities of the relevant period under the said notification in the process , in respect of some of the speeches , utterances etc. it was observed as under :

THE GAZETTE OF INDIA : EXTRAORDINARY

[PART II SEC. 3 (ii) ) Retrieval Troops and Tamilar Pasarai, secessionist organizations in Tamil Nadu in furtherance of its objective seeking secession of Tamil Nadu and questioning India's sovereignty and territorial integrity, Cases under TADA booked against Tamiliar Pasarai cadres are still pending The witnesses have also produced the instances wherein LTTE organizations in India are having close nexus with organizations functioning outside India, as noted above. Likewise , from the instances given, it is inferred that activities of pro-LTTE activists and individuals despite the ban enforced, clearly suggest that efforts are made to extend their support to LTTE and also that LTTE leaders have been cynical of India's policy on their organization and reaction of the State machinery in curbing their activities . The satisfaction of the Government of India provided under sub- section ( 1 ) and proviso to sub- section (3 ) of Section 3 of the Act on the basis of the afore- noted material is justifiable and cannot be faulted with. The law enjoins and empowers the Central Government to declare a particular organization as unlawful organization if it is satisfied that such an association is indulging in unlawful activities as defined under Section 2 (f) of the Act. The activities have been continuing since the first Notification dated 14.05.1992 was issued and despite the fact that the ban is still in force . The aims and objectives of the political wing of the LTTE as well as the activities of the LTTE cadres indicate that behind all these activities there is a clear aim for secession of Tamil Nadu State from the Indian Union . Therefore , it has become necessary to continue the ban on LTTE i [ भाग II- खण्ड 3 (ii) ]

under Section 3 of the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act , 1967 to preserve the territorial integrity and sovereignty of India. In view of the existing laws , no organization whether Indian or foreign based can avowedly claim that it is for secession or it can question the sovereignty and territorial integrity of India. The evidence , which is given herein above , clearly shows that one of the objectives of the LTTE is to bring into existence a separate Tamil country by creating secession in India as well as in Sri Lanka . All the organizations and persons supporting the cause of LTTE and spreading the feelings for a separate Tamil Eelam consisting of parts of India and parts of Sri Lanka get material and monetary support from LTTE and LTTE is the source of all their inspiration. The Tribunal after the receipt of records called upon LTTE under sub - section 2 of Section 4 of the Act to show cause why the association be not declared unlawful . LTTE has failed to show cause and was proceeded ex -parte . Necessary inquiry has been held by this Tribunal in the manner specified in Section 9 of the Act. The Central Government as well as the State Government have produced the material on record justifying the declaration of LTTE as an unlawful association which is discussed in detail hereinabove . May be there are some peace talks in progress , particularly with Sri Lankan Government . However, these have not fructified so far . Furthermore , an important fact for our purpose is that , notwithstanding these peace talks , the LTTE is indulging in unlawful activities unabashedly .
