The article is written completely without any citation. Does not qualify as a NPOV article because of extra ordinary claims that are not backed with RS. Needs to rewritten to meed wikipedia standards. I have also taken off the terrorism tags from the page. How can it go under terrorism when they are indeed a registered in international countries ?

It is true that TRO has been registered in international countries but the TRO officers in various countries including France are being shutdown for being used as fronts to generate revenue for a terrorist organization. The fact that an organization is registered does not mean that it is not linked to terrorism. TRO officials in many countries have been recently arrested for helping fund terrorism in Sri Lanka.Thinkweek 05:35, 7 July 2007 (UTC)

Yes, not only that their accounts have been seized by the Central Bank of Sri Lanka for investigations and in January, 2007 Sri Lankan Special Task Force commandos while in Operation Definite Victory were able to find logical assets which donated to the LTTE by the TRO. --♪♫ ĽąĦĩŘǔ ♫♪ walkie-talkie 07:35, 7 July 2007 (UTC)

The United States also froze the assets of TRO in November 2007 on charges that it was a front to facilitate fund-raising and procurement for the LTTE. The US state department order prohibits U.S. citizens from transacting with it. In the words of the US Treasury, the “TRO passed off its operations as charitable, when in fact it was raising money for a designated terrorist group responsible for heinous acts’’. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Thalgas (talkcontribs) 07:07, 12 December 2007 (UTC)
