Tamil Diaspora youth protest in front of Indian Embassy in Switzerland

[TamilNet, Friday, 02 June 2017, 21:41 GMT]
Eezham Tamil Diaspora activists in Switzerland mobilized a protest on Friday in front of the Indian Embassy at Bern, demanding the release of Tamil Nadu activists Thirumurgan Gandhi from the May 17 Movement, and Daison, Ilamaran and Arun from the Tamil Vidiyal Kadchi. The four activists have been detained without trial in Puzhal Jail by Tamil Nadu State Police under the influence by the New Delhi Establishment since 21st of May, following a peaceful candle vigil Mu’l’livaaykkaal Remembrance at Marina Beach in Chennai. The Indian Embassy officials responded with ‘surveillance threat’ by taking photos of the activists.



This is the first protest being organized by the Tamil Diaspora against the recent detention of Tamil Nadu activists. A series of protests are to follow in Switzerland and in other countries across the globe, the protesters said.

The protesters held placards condemning the Indian government for its unlawful arrest and accused the New Delhi Establishment for its collusion with genocidal Sri Lanka.

The demonstration in Switzerland was called for by the Swiss Council of Eezham Tamils (SCET), Akkinip Pa’ravaika’l (Phoenix), and Tamil Women Association in Switzerland.

The world Tamils have declared the May 18 as the commemoration day for The Eezham Tamil people, who are subjected to structural genocide by the genocidal Sri Lankan state abetted by Indian, American and British imperialist forces, stated a communique issued by the organisers of the protest in Bern.

Some of the placards held by the protestors stated: “Activists detained under Goondas Act for commemorating Tamil genocide! India, is this your Democracy?” and “We Eelam Tamils stand in solidarity with 4 comrades and condemn the false charges on them”.

In the meantime, a similar solidarity protest has been organised by Eezham Tamils in the occupied homeland on 8th of June. Tamil National People’s Front (TNPF), led by Gajendrakumar Ponnambalam, is organising the protest in front of the Indian Consulate in Jaffna.

SL police, HR commission decline to register complaints on ‘white van’ activity in KKS

[TamilNet, Thursday, 01 June 2017, 23:05 GMT]
Two motorbikes and a number-plate belonging to another motorcycle have been recovered from abandoned wells in recently released former ‘High Security Zone’ in Kaangkeasanthu’rai (KKS) in Jaffna. A torture chamber operated by the occupying Sinhala military was earlier discovered in the same area, which comes under KKS South, J-235, village area (GS). The rotten motorbikes were recovered while the owner of the land, Mr Niranjan from Kuru Veethi, was clearing his recently released land to reconstruct the well. As soon as the nearby SL Police station was notified on the discovery, a white-van emerged from the military zone and two men in civil clothes forcefully removed the number plates from the two motorbikes, eyewitnesses said.

Shanmugalingam Shageevan, a former civic member who leads uprooted peoples’ organization in Valikaamam went to the SL Police in KKS and to the so-called Sri Lankan Human Rights Commission in Jaffna. His complaints were not registered at both the places, Mr Shageevan told TamilNet on Thursday.

In the meantime, a lone number-plate was recovered from another locality in the same area and the owner of the motorbike was a civilian in I’nuvil whose motorbike was robbed by the SL military in 2007.

The occupying SL military was deploying the motorbikes that were either robbed or the motorbikes belonging to the victims of earlier white-van abductions to terrorize the people. Later, these bikes have been dumped into abandoned wells near the SL military intelligence camp situated in J-235 area.

The fact that white-van squad was still active and is pre-occupied with removing the traces has severely threatened the people who are resettling, Mr Shageevan said.

Stranded Mu'l'lik-ku'lam villagers seek attention towards their grievances

[TamilNet, Wednesday, 31 May 2017, 23:37 GMT]
More than 100 families of uprooted Tamils from the coastal village of Mu'l'lik-ku'lam in the Musali division of Mannaar district, say they are stranded at the church and the school for one month since 29 April. They are still not allowed to inspect their properties that remain occupied by the SL Navy. The uprooted people say they have been deceived by the SL Establishment. “None of our lands have been released,” says 28-year-old fisherman Theepak Revel in an interview to TamilNet this week. “We have been completely deceived. We are living as displaced people in our own village. There is no freedom of movement,” he said. 56-year-old Christophu Mariyathas said there was no information from the SL Navy about releasing their lands houses.



The uprooted people have been waging a continuous protest for 38 days until 29 April when the protesting people received an assurance from the SL Navy commander on behalf of Maithiripala Sirisena, the SL President and the Commander-in-Chief of the occupying SL military.

But, one month has elapsed. The SL Navy is still refusing to release the remaining houses.

“While we were staging the protest on Mannaar - Puththa'lam Road, there were people and politicians who were visiting us. After we came to the church [a military zone], none of them visited us. One month has elapsed,” says 40-year-old Jeelaani Anthoniyappah.
