Eelam, Eelam:
On August 22, 2006 two complaints were unsealed in U.S. District Court in Brooklyn charging eight defendants with multiple crimes under the United States Code. The eight defendants were charged [with] conspiracy to provide material support and resources to a designated foreign terrorist organization - the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE or Tamil Tigers).
