Former Deputy Minister Vinayagamoorthi Muralitharan, alias Karuna has been transferred to a separate cell under tight security at the Colombo Remand Prison.

He is to be kept at the M2 prison compound, according to sources within the Prison as officials fear security threats on the life of the former LTTE rebel leader from inmates.

Senior officials also revealed that if there was a request for food to be brought from outside, they would consider such a request. Muralitharan was arrested by the FCID yesterday over the alleged misuse of a state vehicle.
