The
Sri Lankan government has made little progress in providing
accountability for wartime abuses. The government’s failure to comply
with a March 2013 United Nations Human Rights Council resolution led to a
new resolution in 2014. The resolution calls on the UN Office of the
High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR) to investigate serious
violations of international human rights and humanitarian law and
related crimes by both sides during Sri Lanka’s civil war, which ended
in 2009.
