Tamils protest outside Sri Lankan consulate

Irene Precklet 2009-01-27 15:07

Members of Toronto's Sri Lankan community are trying to raise awareness of what they call genocide taking place in their home country.

Hundreds of Tamils gathered outside the Sri Lankan consulate at Yonge and St. Clair to make their message heard.

Earlier Tuesday, a Sri Lankan health official said more than 300 civilians are wounded and scores feared killed by artillery shells fired into a government-designated 'safe zone' for ethnic Tamil civilians trapped by fighting between the government and Tamil rebels.

The health official said Tuesday that it remains difficult to obtain a full account of the casualty toll in the 35-square-kilometre area near Mullaittivu.

He did not say whether he believed the shelling came from the rebel side or the government side.

Journalists are barred from the war zone.

'They are killing innocent people'

Consulate shuts for day as hundreds protest 'atrocities' against Tamils in Sri Lanka

Hundreds of demonstrators gathered in front of the Sri Lankan consulate yesterday to condemn the alleged killing of dozens of Tamil civilians by the government in the island nation Monday, calling it ethnic cleansing and genocide.

"The (Sri Lankan) government's atrocities against Tamils are unacceptable," said Jey Jeyarasalingam, 25, a student at the University of Toronto. "They are killing innocent people, little children. The situation is so bad but the international community is not even talking about it."

The consulate closed its doors for the day as almost two dozen police officers monitored the gathering. Waving signs and shouting slogans, protesters of all ages started to congregate outside the consulate on St. Clair Ave. W. near Yonge St. just before 11 a.m. and stayed till 5 p.m.

When Gaza was being pounded by Israeli forces, it made headlines everywhere "but no one seems to care about the condition in Sri Lanka," said Jeyarasalingam, holding an enlarged photograph of two dead children lying on a floor. "Things have never been so bad in Sri Lanka."

The civil war in the tiny country has raged for almost three decades and thousands have been reported killed. The rebel Tamil Tigers have been demanding a separate state for minority ethnic Tamils in the island's north and east, but on Sunday Sri Lankan forces captured the Tamil Tigers' last major stronghold, confining the rebels to a narrow slice of jungle.

The neutral International Committee of the Red Cross said hundreds of civilians have died in the past two weeks and 250,000 are trapped by intense fighting between government forces and the Tamil Tigers.

Earlier there was tension when about a dozen demonstrators walked into the consulate at about 10:30 a.m. and demanded to speak to consul general Bandula Jayasekara. "He said `I'm not talking to terrorists' and called the cops," said Thennavan Amuthan, one of the protesters. "He called us terrorists." In an interview, Jayasekara pointed out that Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam is a banned organization and "these people (protesters) are clearly their sympathizers."

At Ryerson University, about 30 students staged a 30-hour fast from noon Monday in the student centre lobby to educate colleagues about the war between the Tamils and the Sri Lankan government. The group was collecting signatures for a petition to send to Prime Minister Stephen Harper, said Kaviraj Nagarajah, president of the Ryerson Tamil Students' Association and an aerospace engineering major.

At 28 hours without food and water, Nagarajah said most of those fasting were "doing sort of okay." Nagarajah immigrated to Canada five years ago with his parents, who he said were apolitical. His father had been injured by shrapnel in a bombing shortly before they left.

Tamils protest 'genocide'

Shelling killing civilians in 'safe zones'

A loud and boisterous crowd demonstrated downtown yesterday, accusing the Sri Lankan government of atrocities against Tamils in the war-torn Asian nation.

Between 400 and 500 protesters clogged St. Clair Ave., near Yonge St., calling for "justice" and protesting the deaths and woundings of civilians caught in the middle of the civil war between the Sri Lankan government and Tamil rebels.

The AP reported the Red Cross appealed to both sides yesterday to allow safe passage for what they estimated were 250,000 people trapped in the northern war zone.

'SAFE ZONE'

Civilians gathered in a small "safe zone" on the edge of rebel territory, but a health official said yesterday at least 300 civilians were wounded and scores feared killed by shells fired into the zone.

While yesterday's demonstration was peaceful, it was reflective of the conflict on the Indian Ocean: The protesters accused the government of genocide while the consul-general described the placard-waving crowd of at very least being sympathizers of the terrorist organization Tamil Tigers.

About 20 people launched the protest by rushing into the fourth-floor offices of the consulate offices of Sri Lanka on St. Clair., occupying it until police arrived.

'MY PEOPLE DYING'

The recent spike in violence in so-called "safe zones" has left hundreds dead, said protest spokesman Thennavan Amuthan, 27. "My people are dying," he said. "I don't know what to do" to stop it.

He said the protest was spontaneous. "We're here today because the genocide in Sri Lanka has reached epic proportions. I was educated in Canada and I have Canadian values and this cannot happen anywhere in the world, let alone Sri Lanka."

He said the group asked consul general Bandula Jayasekara to get the government to allow health organizations back into the war-torn regions.

"This has become a war against Tamils," Amuthan said. "My family is not trying to create (a separate country), they just want to live in peace and dignity."

The consul told protesters that "I do not speak to terrorists," Amuthan said.

Jayasekara said the protest was a front for terrorist organizations that are feeling the pressure of losing the civil war in Sri Lanka and its sources of income in the Toronto area.

"This group ... they are members of the Tamil Tigers or Tamil Tigers sympathizers," he said. "Tamils are wonderful people. All Tamils are not (members of terrorist groups)."

He accused the protesters of casing the offices before about 20 people "forcibly entered" around 10 a.m.

"They photographed and videotaped my staff in a very threatening manner."

Jayasekara said the protest is based on the Tigers losing the civil war "and they are losing their money, their funds." Toronto's Tamil community is a major source of the Tigers' financing, he said.
