India’s Sri Lanka Policy Under Fire
March 13, 2012,By Tom Wright
Allegations in a British documentary that Sri Lankan forces summarily executed Tamil Tiger leader Velupillai Prabhakaran and his 12-year-old son at the end of the country’s 26-year civil war in 2009 are testing India’s policy of neutrality toward its neighbor.

- Sri Lankan soldiers carried the body of Tamil Tiger leader Velupillai Prabhakaran, May 19, 2009.
The documentary, which is set to air Wednesday on Britain’s Channel 4, purports to contain video footage showing multiple bullet wounds in the bodies of the deceased, suggesting execution at close range.
India’s media carried stills of the dead boy and the issue disrupted Parliament on Tuesday as Indian lawmakers from the south, which has a large Tamil population, criticized New Delhi’s failure to pressure Sri Lanka to investigate war crimes as part of a reconciliation process.
