Stop
the Political Killings in Sri Lanka!
We are
committed to protect the most fundamental of all freedoms and rights, "the
right to security of the person." We will do our utmost to highlight
every political killing in Sri Lanka, so that one day, one week, one
month,
one year will pass without such killings.
We condemn the political killings that have continued during the two years
of ceasefire and peace process. Amnesty International has condemned the
LTTE for the documented killings of at least 22 Sri Lankan citizens and
attempted killings of at least 16 Sri Lankan citizens during the ceasefire.
A just and sustainable peace will not be possible while such killings
continue.

Protect
Dissenting Journalists and Free Press!
Monitoring
the pulse of events in the expatriate community, Sri Lanka Democracy
Forum believes the threats against TBC have reached a new level
of seriousness. Although the UK police have been informed, SLDF
remain profoundly concerned about these journalists' safety.
We urge the UK authorities to take immediate steps to protect
the victims from violence, investigate the allegations and bring
the perpetrators to justice. SLDF calls on all organisations
committed to free press to express their support and solidarity
with TBC.
