<p>"But his commitment for Tamileelam could not be doubted. He even told the LTTE members that in case he (Prabhakaran) swayed away from the desire to carve out a separate Tamileelam, then he should not be spared and killed," said his former aid turned foe D Siddharthan who formed the People`s Liberation Organisation of Tamil Ealam after falling out with the LTTE leader.<br /><br />Siddharthan, who along with the former LTTE leaders Krishnan and Guhan opened the first LTTE office in London in the 1970s, split with Prabhakaran following differences.<br />Their enmity became so acute became that Prabhakaran had ordered for Siddharthan killing.<br /><br />The PLOTE leader said that Prabhakaran failed to realise the ground realities because of his "intransigence and lack of understanding of the geo-political "reality."<br /><br />"Prabhakaran failed to use the military might to benefit the Tamil community. He pushed the Tamils into an abyss," he said. <br /><br />Siddharthan, who has been provided adequate government security due to the LTTE threat, said that Prabhakaran was a dangerous man.<br />"Prabhakaran could not be trusted. He never liked a no. He is a survivalist," Siddharthan said.<br />Siddharthan said he remembered of an incident in the late 1970s when the LTTE leaders during a meeting in a house in Jaffna heard of a police jeep sound.<br /><br />"Prabhakaran ordered the light of the house to be switched off and make it pitch dark. But when the danger was over and the lights came on. I was surprised to see that Prabhakaran who was seated next to me had vanished."<br />"I could not realise where he slipped. After the lights came, I saw a smiling Prabhakaran emerging from one of the entrance of the house," Siddharthan said.<br />"We also subsequently realised that the keep that had moved past the house was not a police convoy," he said.<br />Siddharthan said nobody could easily gauge his "survivalist" mentality.<br />"I split with Prabhakaran in the beginning of 1980 and he then considered me his enemy and was looking to finish me," Siddharthan said.<br /><br />On the death of Prabhakaran’s son Charles Anthony, Siddarthan said it was possible that Prabhakaran would have tried to save him.<br />"But in warfare, things so happen sometimes that even if your kith and kin is very near you, it becomes difficult to save him," he said.<br /><br />Sri Lanka Army special forces soldiers found the body of Charles Anthony, the elder son of LTTE chief V Prabhakaran in the Karayamullavaikkal area this morning.</p>
