Unlock the Camps in Sri Lanka
From Amnesty International:
300,000 people displaced by the fighting in Sri Lanka are held by the government in de facto detention camps. They cannot leave the camps, where conditions are "appalling" according to UN Secretary General Ban Ki Moon.
Call on the Sri Lankan government to immediately allow the displaced civilians freedom of movement: those who wish to leave the camps should be free to do so. Urge them to place the camps under civilian, not military, management and to allow aid agencies, journalists and human rights observers full, unhindered access to the camps to carry out their functions and prevent possible abuses.
Visit AI to send a letter to the Senior Advisor to the President of Sri Lanka.
This is an ongoing pledge that should be fulfilled as often as possible.

In this world no one has rights to punish a man who have not at all involved in any sort of criminals or Civil activities. Tomorrow definitely Govt of Srilanka will have to answer / give huge value / face against this non humanity activities of common tamilian in Srilanka.

Civilians of any ethnicity should not be held as prisoners in camps by their own government. It's a shame that the international community is not condemning these atrocities by the Sri Lankan government." At least the voices of ordinary citizens" aroudn the world should be heard.

There is nothing wrong in letting free any life which is unharmfull to others and when its a human being it must be done.

Its important for a society to be sensitive to its own admissions of fault(s) or perversions to stop a regime from going insane. Its therefore important to convince the Sinhala South that the Tamil people should also have the same decent democracy in living in their own homes or where they prefer.

Killing innocent people is uncivilised act.Request to every nation should passion to save innocent peoples from camps.
Gana. Kurinji @ 11:50AM PT Sep 22
It is an insult to lock the innocent people in detention camps continuously for months.Since the time earmarked by Rajapaksa is round the corner,the whole world should insist on fixing a date to release the suffering folk.That is very very important.
