Thank you, Groundviews/Ruki,
for sharing the AFAD (Asian Federation Against Involuntary Disappearances) video. This addresses one of the ‘root causes’ in SriLankan situation.

Whether Sinhalese, Tamil or Muslim or whoever, the ‘disappeared ‘ SHOULD be released or TRUTH told!

I hope MR’s extended family is not continuing the disappearances?

”What can we offer Fr. Jim Brown’s father and Vimalathas’s children and wife, and many others like them, will be a determining factor in our ability to have co-existence and lasting peace”:

People voted out the previous President and voted in Good Governance on 8January.
People have voted out the possibility of the rule by UPFA and voted in the possibility of rule by UNP whose leader has already appealed for a change in political culture in the country. Let us see it begins in the new parliament with the release of the reports of nearly a score of Commissions of Inquiry(on disappearances, murders, corruption in public office, etc) the previous President refused to publish. Let us show the youth what Good Governance(=change of political culture) means.

Dear Ruki,

We can tell you are a brave Journalist/Writer, from the para:

“We were both very scared because we were followed and under strict surveillance of Navy officers – whom we knew were hostile and were from the same check point that Fr. Jim Brown and Vimalathas were last seen, and we had no possibility to contact anyone else”

Thank you for documenting the Truth, as is. God bless you.
