Sri Lanka arrest Tamil Activist and her 13 yr daughter

[manlion]

Yesterday (13th March 2014) one of the leading Killinochchi activist and her daughter who have been in the frontline protesting and demanding for the whereabouts of missing have been arrested by the CID.

Jayakumari is a mother of three boys (two of them are killed and one is missing) and one girl. Both the mother and daughter have been in the frontline of many protested organized by Mannar citizens committee and families that are looking for missing and disappeared members. She and her daughter have been featured in many video documentaries on disappeared including the Channel 4 that was released in Nov. 2013. Beside Jayakumari has been the leader of mobilizing the families in Killinochchi for various hearings, public protests and meetings. She has met many visiting diplomats and media persons.

Jayakumari’s one son was killing in Trincomalee, the second one died of a shell attack in Mullivaikal. She handed over her third son (Balendran Mahinthan) to SL army in May 2009 and at that time he was 15 years old (was recruited by the LTTE last minute). One of the government LLRC publications (on the release of rehabilitated cadres) carried his photo and this has been Jayakumari’s strong evidence that she gave her son to SL military.

I am told Jayakumari and her daughter have been brought to Vavunia for further investigation.
Police spokes person Ajith Rohana stated to BBC Tamil yesterday night that a shooting incident took place in Tharmapurum on 13th morning and the suspect has escaped and they have identified a house where the suspect has been hiding and two women have been investigate. He also stated one of their police officers have been injured in the shooting incident.

your weak attempt to brush it as "Tamil tiger drama" just exposes your heinous propaganda to white wash all crimes against Tamils, with the LTTE tag.

The mother handed over her 15 yr old son, after 5 yrs she is asking for him, the army is accountable and has to answer her, not evading with insensitive, stupid, idiotic 'baby look' answer. You don't kill Tamils because they don't have your 'Sinhala look',

One cant accept humanity from the invaders and occupying Neo Nazis , who are hell bent in the extermination of Tamils.

By making the mother and daughter disappear, Neo Nazis have lost credibility , and your pathetic 'Tiger drama', show your are a no brainer, but it entertains your brain dead fan boys.

Human Rights Defenders Ruki Fernando, Rev Fr.Praveen Mahesan detained under PTA by TID Police

The National Peace Council views with great concern the arrest of Ruki Fernando and Fr Praveen Mahesan, two of the leading human rights defenders in the country. Both of them are partners of NPC and have taken part in our programs

Both of them were arrested last evening in Kilinochchi in the North where they had been seeing to the welfare of families of missing persons following the arrest and detention of one of their members Balendran Jayakumari, whose youngest son went missing after allegedly surrendering to the army at the end of the war.


Sri Lanka Guardian: Reassess Arrest Of Ruki Fernando And Fr. Praveen Mahesan

With the arrest and detention of an outspoken Tamil woman activist with no history of violence, under the Prevention of Terrorism Act, the handover of her 13 year old daughter to the child protection authorities, the detention without acknowledgement of two human rights activists, Ruki Fernando and Fr Praveen also under the PTA, genocidal Lankan just torpedoed its chances at the ongoing crucial UNHRC sessions

Pot calling kettle black.

Look at your own country first for how children are treated rather than shedding tears over a wanted terrorists' son.

Britain warns recalcitrant Lanka

British Foreign Office Minister Hugo Swire ”With the March UN Human Rights Council underway and a resolution on Sri Lanka under draft, these arrests underline why the Council must continue its focus on Sri Lanka. The world is watching what happens there, so I urge the Sri Lankan Government to respect human rights defenders and uphold the principles of free expression and movement.”
