In September 2009 Deputy Solicitor-General Kapila Waidyaratne informed the Colombo High Court that Prabhakaran and Pottu Amman had been killed in May 2009 in Karaithuraipatru and that their names should be removed from those charged with Kadirgamar's assassination. Judge Kumudini Wickremasinghe approved the changes, judicially confirming Pottu Amman's death. In March 2010 the Sri Lankan government asked Interpol to remove Pottu Amman from its most wanted list. In October 2010 the charges against Prabhakaran and Pottu Amman in relation to the assassination of Rajiv Gandhi were dropped after the Central Bureau of Investigation filed a report stating that the pair were dead.
