The head of Norwegian NGO FORUT was deported last night (May 30) for her involvement with the LTTE and indulging in activities inimical to the sovereignty and independence of Sri Lanka.
The website says it appears that Ranvei Tvetenes, who was a law unto herself, had ordered the removal of the national flag of Sri Lanka that was hoisted by the local staff to mark the win of the war by the armed forces on May 20.
She had also refused to grant the holiday declared by the President on the occasion.
The staff however had stood firm and demanded the holiday and with great reluctance she was compelled to submit to their demand our sources said.
