who can prove that raw was responsible and eventful in capture, a special team had set on at a special aircraft from delhi, refuelled at chennai, captured and tortured Prabhakaran, after which he died, off course for it's own sake of tamil nadu murdered prabhakaran in his growing power. Why should channels take responsibility, at all? Doesnt the government sponsor them to concot stories, doesnt the government sometimes blindly follow them as it fits it's needs, then why should they be responsible. Govt already has it's dark cells alive in Sri Lanka to tackle that, or does it want to be more oppressive, in which case this is not the right method, or venture international........
at least there is some sensitisation in racially divided sri lanka....

I have not mentioned that it is wrong. I only stated that TV channels
must be more responsible.
