Apa kaitan antara Sosilawati, Patmanathan, LTTE dan MAXIS ? Tak tahulah. Tapi bila search dalam Google macam-macam yang keluar. Mungkin ianya hanya kebetulan sahaja. Tidak ada kaitan antara yang hidup dan yang telah mati.
Shanmugam Kumaran Tharmalingam (alias Selvarasa Pathmanathan, Kumaran Pathmanathan or simply KP) (born April 6, 1955) is the current leader of the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE), a separatist organisation proscribed as a terrorist organization by 32 countries which, until May 2009, was a party to the Sri Lankan Civil War, and sought to create an independent Tamil state in the north and east of Sri Lanka. Pathmanathan is on Interpol's most wanted list for various charges including arms smuggling and criminal conspiracy.
Pathmanathan was one of the top LTTE officials and the chief procurer of arms for the organization. He ran a global network of LTTE offices which were engaged in its weapons procurement, logistics and money laundering operations.
Initially based in Malaysia, where he set up a shipping company in 1987, he was forced to move out after the Malaysian Special Branch cracked down on LTTE activities in the country in 1990, culminating in the seizure of an LTTE ship the same year.

Investigation launched into Maxis Malaysia following KP's information
16 August, 2009 Colombo News Desk CND
A senior officer at the Terrorism Investigations Department (TID) told Lanka News Web that the Defence Ministry has given permission to investigate into the Malaysian telecommunications company, Maxis Malaysia, which owns 49% of Sri Lanka Telecom (SLT) shares and the suspicious political links of the company two local representatives. The investigation it is learnt was launched following information received by the LTTE's international wing head Kumaran Pathmanathan alias KP.
The officer said that KP has had close links with the head of Maxis Malaysia, billionaire businessman Ananda Krishnan. In an earlier occasion, parliamentarian Wimal Weerawansa made a special statement in parliament with regard to Ananda Krishnan and his links with the LTTE.
The security units have also diverted their attention towards the two local representatives of Maxis Malaysia “ Divaina journalist Manoj Abeydheera and Sampath Kapuru Bandara in the investigation.
After being appointed as the two local representatives of Maxis Malaysia after ousting the former local agents Priyantha and Roshan Kariyapperuma, Abeydheera and Kapuru Bandara had traveled to Malaysia several times and met with the company administrative members, who are alleged to supporters of the LTTE.
The two agents have also worked to provide government ministers and other officials who travel to Malaysia with comforts courtesy Maxis Malaysia.
The security units have found that the two agents have maintained close links with government members, senior members of the defense establishment and members of the opposition. The duo has even provided financial assistance to several government and opposition members. Although they had even tried to provide financial assistance to UN S.B. Dissanayake during the Central Provincial Council election, he had declined to accept it.
The TID has therefore decided to investigate the two local agents when investigating into the financial transactions of Maxis Malaysia.
