More protests against illegal sand mining in North-East
29 December 2019
Tensions around illegal sand mining in the North-East persist following
controversal confrontations in villages such as Thottaveli in Mannar
this month.
Tamils in Mannar and Jaffna took to the streets on Friday to protest the
issue and condemned local authorities' and police failure to stop the
perpetrators.

Local groups across the North-East have accused Sri Lankan police of
ignoring or aiding illegal actual perpetrators while using the issue as
an excuse to crack down on communities.
