Protest against setting up camps for the Security Forces in Kandalkadu area at Sarasalai in the Then
The Federation of People's Organizations of Thenmaradchi Division in the Jaffna District has protested against the Security Forces setting up some camps at Kandalkadu area at Sarasalai in the Thenmaradchi Division. The people in and around Sarasalai and Kandalkadu had experienced many atrocities of the armed forces in the years after 1995.
People are now likely to resettle in this area due to the peaceful environment prevailing there. Under this favorable condition when the people are optimistic of the future of the area and anticipate resettling there, setting up of new camps would be hindrance to the movement of the people and would jeopardize the resettlement plans. Under these circumstances the Federation has lodged its protest and demanded the withdrawal of the steps taken by the Security Forces to set up new camps at Kandalkadu.
