JVP leader Anura Kumara Dissanayake claimed India’s intelligence agency, the Research and Analysis Wing (RAW), had infiltrated Jaffna and was aiming to destabilise the region.
"Jaffna has become a den of the RAW," The Island quotes Mr Dissanayake as saying. “Today, the area is infested with RAW agents and their activities are aimed at destabilising the North."
His comments come as the Sri Lankan government continues to arrest and deport Indian citizens from the Tamil North-East for allegedly violating their visas.

Sri Lanka is one of the most dangerous places in the world to be a journalist. Tamil journalists are particularly at threat, with at least 41 media workers known to have been killed by the Sri Lankan state or its paramilitaries during and after the armed conflict.
Despite the risks, our team on the ground remain committed to providing detailed and accurate reporting of developments in the Tamil homeland, across the island and around the world, as well as providing expert analysis and insight from the Tamil point of view
