நாளை சனல் நாலின் இரண்டாவது கொலைக்கள ஆவணம் வர உள்ள நிலையில் இந்தியாவின் நிலைப்பாடு உன்னிப்பாக பார்க்கப்படுகின்றது.

500000 மக்களை பிரதிநிதித்துவப்படுத்தும் அமைப்பு மன்மோகன் சிங்கிற்கு கடிதம் எழுதியுள்ளது. அதில் அமெரிக்க பிரேரணைக்கு ஆதரவு தரும்படியும் வட அமெரிக்காவில் 500,000 க்கும் மேற்பட்ட தமிழர்கள் இந்தியாவின் நிலைப்பாட்டை உன்னிப்பாக பார்ப்பதையும் கூறியுள்ளனர்.

Federation of Tamil Sangams of North America (FeTNA) writes to Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh

We the Tamil Americans and Tamil Canadians and millions of Tamils around the world have their eyes and ears glued to knowing the UN resolution against human rights violation in Sri Lanka. The Tamils of Sri Lanka have an enduring and a long lasting relationship with the Tamilnadu Tamils, going back to several centuries. We feel this would be high time for India to stand with the Sri Lankan Tamils and save their Human Rights and dignity.

We sincerely request that India not only firmly supports the US led initiative and resolution in favor of an independent investigation of human rights violations by Sri Lanka but also uses its status as an emerging regional economic and superpower to find more countries in support of the resolution.

Madam President,

....

It is therefore critical that this initiative receive wide support by Council members, and that it be treated as a first step. The credibility of the Human Rights Council depends on this. Words must be translated into action.

I thank you.

QUESTION: On Sri Lanka?

MR. TONER: Yeah.

QUESTION: Do you have anything on the resolution against Sri Lanka’s human rights violation in Geneva?

MR. TONER: Well, you saw – and I would refer you to the opening remarks by Ambassador Donahoe in – during the Human Rights Council. She gave a very extensive description of what our efforts are all about in tabling a draft resolution on Sri Lanka for consideration by the council. And essentially, our goal here is to get the countries of the world to join in encouraging the Government of Sri Lanka to take steps needed to ensure meaningful and lasting national reconciliation after this – their long conflict. This is something we’ve been asking the Government of Sri Lanka and its – through its Lessons Learned and Reconciliation Commission to address for some time. So it remains a serious concern.

QUESTION: The government of the southern Indian state of Tamil Nadu has asked the Indian Government to support that draft resolution and support the U.S. position. Have you heard anything from the Indian Government on this?

MR. TONER: I’m not aware that we’ve had – that we’ve gotten any communications from the Indian Government. I can check on that.

Sri Lanka’s shameful record on detention without trial

Contact: Sharon Singh, ssingh@aiusa.org, 202-509-8194

Hundreds of people languish in arbitrary, illegal and often incommunicado detention in Sri Lanka, vulnerable to torture and extrajudicial execution, despite the end of the country's long conflict, Amnesty International said in a new report, launched today in Geneva.

The new report, Locked away: Sri Lanka's security detainees, reveals that arbitrary and illegal detention and enforced disappearances remain routine in Sri Lanka, where human rights abuses are not investigated nor punished.

Counter-terrorism legislation allows authorities to arrest people without evidence and to hold them without charge or trial for extended periods. For years, the Sri Lankan government justified this legislation as necessary for combating the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE).

"If Sri Lanka is serious about moving from war to peace, it needs to ensure that the rule of law is not a matter of lip-service, but is the lifeblood of the nation's justice system," said Suzanne Nossel, executive director at Amnesty International USA. "This report documents that the government persists in using the same unlawful tactics against individuals who dare to criticize them that were in place during the decades of conflict. Opponents are still being silenced through harassment -- and even disappeared. The authorities must be held to account for their unlawful actions now and for the alleged war crimes of the past."
