Former Mullaittivu Battle Hero Colonel Laffeer Remembered
Recapture of Mullaittivu township by Sri Lanka Army refreshes memories of brave soldiers who had sacrificed their lives during yesteryear fighting in the same area for the sake of safeguarding the territorial integrity of the country. The decisive day was 18th July 1996 when the terrorists launched a massive onslaught on the Mullaittivu camp and decimated over 1200 heroic soldiers who valiantly fought until the last soldier.
Colonel A.F Laffeer, then Commanding Officer of the 1 SF (Special Force) who led his troops to reinforce the 6 Brigade troops under siege was the senior most officer to lay his life during the Mullaittivu battle in 1996.
Colonel A.F Laffeer, using his training expertise got himself airdropped with his team of brave SF soldiers into the tactical area with the noble objective of rescuing brother soldiers even without considering the threat to his own life when there was no option for the infantry troops to reach Mullaittivu through land.
This brave SF officer who destroyed a large number of terrorists and their weapons and ammunition during the mission named "Thrividha Pahara" was fatally injured due to a terrorist bullet before he brought his great mission to a total completion.
As all access routes were cut off from all directions, no one could help save the life of this senior officer who did not let his morale lose even at the eleventh hour. On 18th July 1996 Colonel A.F Laffeer bade adieu to his valued life in the battle field. In recognition of his valour, he was posthumously awarded the PWV (Parama Weera Vibushanaya), the highest Gallantry Medal for bravery.
