SRI LANKA (BAN/NAMBIAR EXCEPTED) CONTEMPTUOUS OF THE UNHRC THREATENS TAMILS WITH MORE MULLIVAYKKAL M
by Vssubramaniam June 26, 2012
The Rajapakses’ impunity now extends to obstructing with threats the implementation of the key ‘reconciliation’ components in the LLRC report that the UNHRC adopted in March 2012. The Tamils are being warned against supporting any devolution package be it the Delhi sponsored 13 Amendment plus or any other. Given the Rajapakses’ track record in deception the desperate plea of the Tamils to the International Community (IC) and UN agencies is to act/intervene swiftly and firmly to avoid far more severe turmoils than the Mullivaykkal massacres should SL embark on Chanpika’s massacre threat.
The 1974 agreement between India and Sri Lanka (SL) signed in 1974 that supposedly ceded Kachchativu enjoys a treaty status. Likewise the Indo-SL Accord signed by India and SL in 1987 incorporating the 13 Amendment also has a treaty status. SL is reneging on the enforceable 13 Amendment Accord threatening the Tamils with many more Mulivaykkal massacres if they supported Delhi on the 13 Amendment as a devolution measure. In an affront to India this act amounts to SL abrogating the 1987 Indo-SL Accord. More importantly the critical ‘in the loop’ support that Delhi extended to SL that delivered SL victory against the Tamil insurgency (or LTTE) was on condition that SL implements the Accord. The Rajapakses may gloat that by reneging on the Accord/13 Amendment SL is retaliating for Delhi voting against SL on the UNHRC March 2012 resolution. The 13 Amendment devolution proposals also featured in discussions with other IC players both in pre- and post May 2009. more
