While taking pictures on "ambush road" in a Tamil Tiger controlled area in the Batticaloa district, I'm passed on motorcycle by Nagesh (sunglasses), a senior commander of the LTTE, who participated in many battles against the Sri Lankan Army in the east and north of Sri Lanka. He was killed in early April 2009 in Puthukkudiyiruppu (Mullaitivu). He was a senior commander of the Jeyanthan Brigade. District of Batticaloa
