Rehabilitation road for LTTE's child soldiers

The United Nations has accused the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) of recruiting child soldiers. The international body says thousands have been kidnapped from their villages and forced into the 25-year conflict. The Sri Lankan government says it has been taking steps to help child soldiers who were captured or surrendered on the battlefield. David Hawkins reports from a rehabilitation centre in Ambepussa in central Sri Lanka.
