Publication: Attacks on Buddhist Monks and Sri Lankan visitors to Tamil Nadu must cease
Posted Date: 04/05/2013 (Saturday)
We have observed the recent attacks on Buddhist monks and other Sri Lankan visitors in Tamil Nadu with grave concern and extreme unease. These attacks are callous and disgraceful and will not help the Sri Lankan Tamils, but may cause them more harm. We offer our heartfelt sympathies to the victims. Certainly, there is no justification for these acts from either a political perspective or, in truth, from the perspective of any other moral and freedom-loving people. These acts diminish the pride, dignity and freedom of Eelam Tamils.

The period since the last Universal Periodic Review in 2007 has witnessed grave violations of the human rights of civilians in Sri Lanka, particularly in the north-east zone, by state authorities and security forces, culminating in the killing of thousands of Tamils.

Publication: UN failed to stand up for the rights of people they were mandated to assist
Posted Date: 04/05/2013 (Saturday)
The UN Secretary-General Ban Ki Moon, speaking at the UN General Assembly on 30 November 2012, expressed concern over the “new and appalling height of brutality” in Syria, and the human rights violations “being carried out on a wide scale”. He said “I am horrified and saddened and condemn the seemingly daily massacres of civilians”. The very same Secretary-General has presided over an institution that knowingly allowed massacres of civilians, including possibly genocide of Tamils, to take place in Sri Lanka in 2008 and 2009 and thereafter took deliberate measures to cover-up the involvement.

This is Security Council Report’s fifth Cross-Cutting Report on the Protection of Civilians in Armed Conflict following the publication of our first such report in October 2008.

The report looks at relevant developments at the thematic level since our last cross-cutting report and analyses Council action in country-specific situations relating to the protection of civilians, highlighting the case of Syria. It also discusses the impact of evolving Council dynamics and outlines some emerging issues for the Council’s future consideration.
