Schools remain closed Ignoring the order by President Rajapakse, students and teachers continued to boycott school due to the terror filled atmosphere in Jaffna. The president of the Teachers Association said, “Students cannot go to school in the present atmosphere. Students are frightened even to walk the streets. Many students are using the time to wait in long queues to by food for their families. Since the Muhamai and Omanthai checkpoints are closed, teachers are also unable to report to work in their schools.” Madduvil displaced seek protection Many people from Madduvil who displaced from their homes following threats from the SLA have sought protection from the Jaffna branch of the Sri Lanka Human Rights Commission. One couple fled earlier abandoning their six children aged 7 to 11 due to threats from SLA.
