The history of killings, torture, rape and Genocide

There are thousands of Tamils are stranded in North East parts of Sri Lanka where shells, bombs and assaults are continuously conducted by Sri Lankan Army and their associates (help from current Indian Congress Government).

Current Sri Lankan government is systematically rooting out all the Tamils in the country. The government actually continues what its previous leaders have done to Tamils in Sri Lanka – anarchy, torture, destruction and starvation.

Many civilian people are affected without food, shelter and first aid. No foreign aid is allowed to the regions. No independent journalists or monitors are allowed to report on the situation.

Civilians are directed to so called “safe zones”, but Sri Lankan army targets the zones with artillery shells. Over 5000 shells were fired in a day to the “safe zones”. If the civilians don’t stay within the “safe zones”, then they are labeled as Tamils Tigers and shot. If the civilians somehow managed to get far away from the fighting area to a Sri Lanka Army controlled refugee camp, they are exploited morally and sexually; if a Tamil refugee dies due to starvation, denial of medicine, torture or rape, then he or she is labeled as Tamils Tigers.

What many Tamils want in the Sri Lanka are:
(1) STOP THE WAR. Ceasefire in the North and East parts of Sri Lanka
(2) Allow aids to go to the North and East regions
(3) Allow independent journalists and monitors to report on the situation
