Eastern University protests against the killings in Trincomalee
Members of the Eastern University community protested in
front of the university condemning the murder of LTTE cadres
in Uppuveli in Trincomalee on Tuesday morning. Large number
of students, academics and workers of the university took
part in the protest.
The protesters also demanded that the P-TOMS agreement be
immediately implemented. Protesters carried placards reading
slogans like, “Sri Lanka government, stop the inhumane
attacks against the Tamils”, and “Sri Lanka military, do
not kill unarmed cadres”. The Batticaloa-Valaichenai road was blocked due to the large
number of protesters and transport through this road came to
a stand still.
