Demand Justice for Ragihar Manoharan in Sri Lanka: No Deadline - ASAP
Ragihar
Manoharan was one of five Sri Lankan Tamil students killed by security
forces in January 2006 in the city of Trincomalee. Authorities have
failed to prosecute anyone for their murder. His case is emblematic of
the thousands of people subjected to human rights violations and war
crimes in Sri Lanka by government forces or their paramilitary agents. A
2006 commission of inquiry examined the murder of the five students but
its report has never been made public. Click here to
call on the Sri Lankan government to release the commission’s report
and to bring the killers of Ragihar Manoharan and the other four
students to justice.
