"To us all towns are one, all men our kin.
Life's good comes not from others' gift, nor ill
Man's pains and pains' relief are from within.
Thus have we seen in visions of the wise !."

- Tamil Poem in Purananuru, circa 500 B.C

INDICTMENT AGAINST SRI LANKA

Sri Lanka's Genocidal War - '95 to '01

Detention without trial and torture in custody says Norwegian M.P...

"In a letter to the President of the Norwegian Parliament, Kirsti Kolle Grondahl who led a parliamentary delegation to Sri Lanka in March, says that around 1,650 Tamils are in detention without trial. Many suffer torture in custody. Tamils are arrested at the airport under the Immigrants and Emigrants (Amendment) Act 42 of 1998, which disallows bail, provides for mandatory sentence and removes discretion of courts against the concept of a fair trial."  ( British Refugee Council publication Sri Lanka Monitor, March 1999)
