Why is SLMM silent on GoSL aggression in Sampur? –
Trincomalee LTTE Political Head Elilan
Trincomalee LTTE Political Head Elilan has lodged a complaint with the SLMM about GoSL aggression in Sampur. In the complaint he asks why the SLMM is keeping silent in the face of 97 civilians killed, 215 civilians injured, 46,000 civilians displaced, homes and other public buildings destroyed, crops destroyed and livestock killed.
The GoSL started the war of occupation of Sampur on 28 August, with no concern about the ceasefire agreement. GoSL is now gleefully celebrating the destruction it wrought on the people of Sampur. Why is SLMM quiet in the face of this arrogance of the GoSL to commit atrocities against civilians asked Elilan. Elilan also said, “The GoSL forces after occupying the coastline of Sampur, have begun a major push to move inland today. The GoSL forces are heavily shelling the area. The LTTE is continuing with its retaliatory attacks”.
