Tamil women have completed 2,700 days of their struggle for international interventions to know the fate of their war-missing relatives.
On 13 July, they staged a protest in Vavuniya and said they also aim to save Tamils from a future genocide.
Secretary of the association of relatives of the missing M. Rajkumar said they wanted the US and European nations to intervene on their behalf.
It is also a question of Tamils’ right to live, and the only solution is their sovereignty, he said.
Sit-down protests began in February 2017 in Vavuniya, Kilinochchi, Jaffna, Mullaitivu, Trincomalee and Ampara to demand the government reveals the whereabouts of those who surrendered to the military.
The office for missing persons set up in 2018 has failed to account for a single person to date.
