- Jan 25, 2016

A commemoration ceremony held yesterday 24th at the YMCA Kalmunai, following ten years of the murder of Subramaniam Sukeertharajan, who worked as a journalist at the “Sudaroli” newspaper.

Sukeertharajan’s wife, daughter, son, Sinhala, Tamil, Muslim journalists, Eastern Journalist Association, Jaffna Media Society and the active committee for media freedom, participated.
 
Subramaniam Sukeertharajan was murdered for revealing factual information about the five students who was killed in Trincomalee in 2006.
 
When the authorities tried to undermine the murder of the five students due to a bomb blast Sukeertharajan produced photographic evidence confirming the murder was committed due to bullets. These evidences helped the local and international human rights organizations to expose the truth.
