Yesterday, Sri Lankan officials announced the arrest of the new leader of the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Elam (LTTE), Kumaran Pathmanathan (also known as KP or Selvarasa Pathmanathan).

Of special relevance is a profile of Pathmanathan that Rohan Gunaratna contributed to the Center for Terrorism Research's newly-released report Terrorism in the West 2008, which I co-authored. To read the entire report, click here.
