21 Nov 2016
A
statue of the former Tamil MP and human rights lawyer, N Raviraj who
was assassinated 10 years ago this month was unveiled in Chavakachcheri
on Sunday.
The official unveiling ceremony was attended by a number of Tamil
politicians including the leader of the Tamil National Alliance, R
Sampanthan, and other TNA MPs.
Mr Raviraj, a former TNA MP, was assassinated along with his driver in Colombo.
No one has been sentence for the crime despite a decade passing.
A witness in an inquiry into the assassination of Mr Raviraj earlier
this year alleged Sri Lankan navy intelligence officials were involved.
The witness, Sampath Prithiviraj, said the officials associated with the
navy intelligence office in Gangarama had planned the killing.
In July six men, including three former Sri Lankan navy personnel have
been indicted. Three men absconded the proceedings, including two
paramilitary men with Karuna's group.
