Original review summary

The review says Wijepala stated that people may remember deceased relatives, but that LTTE commemorations and use of the organization’s emblems, uniforms, and pictures were not permitted. It concludes that edited video and reporting misrepresented his remarks; he did not say that LTTE flags or symbols could be used.[S1]
