At the investigation into the petition against KP alias Kumaran Padmanadan the former leader of the international unit of the LTTE Organisation, the Attorney-General

The MP of Janatha Vimukthi Peramuna, Vijitha Herath had filed a petition asking that an Order be issued to take KP into custody and produce him before courts ; but the Attorney-General has notified the Appeal Courts saying that no guilt against him has been revealed in the investigations so far conducted. Information came streaming in that it was across KP that international money began flowing into the LTTE Organisation at a time when the organisation was active. The Tamil Net Website broadcast that he was made the leader of that organisation after the death of Prabhakaran.

KP was in a short period of time found residing overseas and the international police managed to arrest him when he was there and subsequently brought him to Sri Lanka and it is reported that because of his financial power the former regime had provided him security and that advantages were reaped thereby.

The attorney-at-law who appeared on behalf of the government said that although he had several charges against him, none of those could be proved. The Appeal Courts has instructed that a report on the investigations at hand be forwarded on or before October 28th.
