Sri Lanka President must be held responsible

(January 01, Jaffna, Sri Lanka Guardian) The cold blooded murder of Markandu Sivalingam, the Deputy Director of Education of Jaffna, confirms the hallmarks of the state involvement in the murder to give a message to the Tamils that it wants to have absolute control over their affairs. Supported by the sheer military presence to have a tab on each and every Tamils of the north, the government is fully geared to violently deal with even the semblance of criticism of its actions against the Tamils.

The military also has at its disposal, the most hated Tamil paramilitaries and former LTTE combatants who deserted the movement over the years on various grounds that play an important part in the kidnaps and murders in Jaffna.

Lethal of all are the well groomed men of former LTTE military head Mahataya and the unscrupulous paramilitary group of Minister Douglas Devananda. 02 Jan 2011 / undefined Comments / Read More
