Sexual Violence in Conflict: Sri Lanka - systematic, deliberate and intended to destroy
05 June 2014
Next week, the Global Summit to End Sexual Violence in Conflict is due to take place in London, co-hosted by the UK's Foreign Secretary, William Hague and the Special Envoy for the UN High Commissioner for Refugees, Angelina Jolie.
In the run up to the ESVC summit, we revisit the mounting evidence which documents the widespread, systematic and on-going use of sexual violence by Sri Lanka's military against Tamils, that occurs with absolute impunity.
See our previous features:
An orgy of rape in final days (02 Jun 2014)
Rape, Sexual Assault and Forced Prostitution of Tamils in Military-Run in IDP camps (03 Jun 2014)
Sexual violence in detention as torture 2009-2014 (04 Jun 2014)
Sexual Violence in Conflict: Sri Lanka - systematic, deliberate and intended to destroy
Testimonies collected from the victims and from those within the Sri Lankan military suggest sexual violence against Tamils, far from being confined to one rogue detention centre or regiment, was widespread and systematic.
