Meanwhile, Voice Against Corruption, a group backed by Janatha Vimukthi Peramuna (JVP), in Sri Lanka has called on the Government on March 1 (today) to reveal details of the wealth and assets that were seized from the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) during the war. Co-convener of Voice Against Corruption Wasantha Samarasinghe said that the Government had taken into custody large stocks of gold, vast amounts of money and ships belonging to the LTTE during the war. He observed that whenever the Government acquired any LTTE asset it was given wide media publicity. "However, the Government has so far not presented any information regarding these goods and money seized nor have they been handed over to the Treasury," Samarasinghe said.

A group of about 1,500 representatives of the organization called 'Dead and Missing Persons Front' representing the family members killed by the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) handed over a petition to the United Nations (UN) on March 6 over their loved ones killed in LTTE attacks, reports Colombo Page. The petition, addressed to the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights draws attention to the thousands of Sri Lankans killed and disappeared in LTTE attacks throughout the island during the terror reign. The organization holds the major Tamil party Tamil National Alliance (TNA), the proxy party of LTTE before the end of the war, as equally responsible as the LTTE for the deaths of their family members and injustices claimed to have been committed to them.

The Secretary to the Ministry of Public Administration on March 9 said that Sri Lanka will conduct a census on people died and injured during the civil war with the LTTE and the Marxist insurrection in the 80's. The Ministry of Public Administration and Home Affairs in collaboration with the Census and Statistics Department will carry out the census. The census will cover the period of the terrorist war since 1983 including the unrest prevailed in the country in 1983 and the insurrection of the Marxist party Janatha Vimukthi Peramuna in the years of 1988 and 89. There is no data relating to the people dead and injured due to the atrocities committed by the two groups during these periods. The Ministry plans to complete the census before the end of this year.

Minister of Investment Promotion Lakshman Yapa Abeywardena on March 11 said the groups supporting Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) who could not defeat Sri Lanka through war are now trying to attack the country by creating conflicts using international forces. Addressing a public meeting in Colombo the Minister alleged that international forces envious of Sri Lanka's rapid development process are exerting pressure on Sri Lanka and hatching conspiracies to make a regime change in the country. "Despite all this, the Sri Lankan Government will not be shaken by such allegations and will instead continue with its policies for the country," the Minister said.

The parents of the dead and missing persons during the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) war in Sri Lanka due to the atrocities committed by the terrorists questioned the United Nations Human Rights Council (UNHRC) on March 13 why the UN doses not look into the activities of the terror outfit, reports Colombo Page. Addressing a media briefing in Colombo, the convener of the 'Dead and Missing Persons Front' Ananda Perera questioned why the UNHRC is silent about the atrocities committed by the LTTE during the three decades of terror. Perera accused the UNHRC of not looking into the plight of the people who became destitute due to the brutal activities of the terrorist organization. He further said the UNHRC should also focus its attention on Sri Lanka's major Tamil party, Tamil National Alliance (TNA), which was the proxy party of the LTTE during the war and assisted the terrorist organization.

Sri Lanka’s Permanent Representative to the United Nations (UN), Ambassador Dr. Palitha Kohona, on March 15 (today) said that Sri Lanka undertook a task never undertaken by any country that faced terrorism, by even rehabilitating suicide bombers of the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) and releasing them to the Sri Lankan community, reports Daily News. He said, “LTTE suicide bombers struck over 230 times, killing thousands of civilians. They targeted men, women and children indiscriminately and left thousands dead and maimed. They created a massive wave of terror in the country.” He further said, “LTTE combatants including trained suicide bombers have now been rehabilitated and released to the community as part of the Government’s programme to restore the lives of the people who would otherwise have been sacrificed as human cannon fodder.”

Minister for Youth Affairs Dallas Alahapperuma while addressing a media briefing held in at the Sri Lanka Foundation Institute in Colombo on March 22, said “The United Nations Human Rights Council (UNHRC) has become an institution that implements a new 'colonial policy' of ruling by creating divisions in international community, reports Colombo Page. The Minister further said the UNHRC has used Sri Lanka as the first test subject to experiment with the new policy of division. He said the UN resolution, calling for Sri Lanka to investigate war crimes allegedly committed by the security forces during the war against the LTTE, attempts to divide the country.

President Mahinda Rajapaksa, at the presentation of Presidential Colours to the Vijayabahu Infantry Regiment in Boyagane town of Kurunegala District in the North Western Province on March 22 said that the Government has made the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) aspiration of an Eelam state a dream, reports Daily News. He added that the Government was aware that it had to face the consequences, when the humanitarian operation began. He said “Surprise attack is vital to any side. Some international television stations are also trying to launch surprise attacks on Sri Lanka by making false allegations against us.” The President added that the country had to face pressure exerted by foreign Governments, when the humanitarian operation was being launched. It is because of this external irritant that the country is facing pressure from various foreign forces. This foreign intimidation is what the imperialists and the diaspora want.

Defence and Urban Development Ministry Secretary Gotabhaya Rajapaksa while delivering a talk on ‘How the war was ended’ at a function at Light House Hotel in Galle District on March 25 said “Certain politicians who are slavishly devoted to the service of Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) terrorists are engaged in a dirty game of creating problems among the Tamil population to cling to power,” reports Daily News. He was of the view that the machinations of the LTTE rump and other parties with vested interests were compounded by the strategic interest that certain states have in Sri Lanka because of its unique geographical position and said the LTTE propaganda machine remains fully operational in a number of countries though the terrorist outfit has been completely wiped out.

Human Rights Watch (HRW) on March 28 said that Sri Lanka should act on the call by the Deputy Minister V Muralitharan, known as Colonel Karuna, to investigate war crimes by examining his own role in serious abuses, reports Daily Mirror. Karuna was effectively the second-in-command of the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) and the head of its eastern province forces until he split from its leader V Prabhakaran in March 2004. Brad Adams, the Asia director at HRW said "Karuna's call for war crimes investigations should not allow him to airbrush out his own role in atrocities. His LTTE forces were implicated in some of Sri Lanka's most horrific abuses, so the Government's long-stalled war crimes investigations might as well begin with him. LTTE forces under Karuna's command were directly involved in some of the worst crimes of Sri Lanka's 26-year-long armed conflict, which ended in May 2009.”
