By Colombo Telegraph –
Shavendra Silva named Adele Balasingham and Visvanathan Rudrakumaran as two of those enjoying freedom in the West in spite of their involvement with the LTTE. The Deputy Ambassador Maj. Gen. Shavendra Silva was responding to Human Rights Watch’s assertion that LTTE military leaders couldn’t be held accountable as they had perished during the war. Adele lives in the UK, while US-based Rudrakumaran heads an LTTE faction spearheading a campaign for separate state in Northern and Eastern Provinces in Sri Lanka. The government insists that the killing of the top LTTE leadership shouldn’t free those LTTE operatives living abroad, particularly in Europe and North America of accountability for three decades of violence.
Silva last night boasted with the President Rajapakse when he arrived yesterday (19th) in New York, that he took up this position during a recent meeting with senior representatives of the US-based Human Rights Watch to discuss the accountability issues in Sri Lanka. The delegation comprised Ambassador Dr. Palitha Kohona and Deputy Ambassador Maj. Gen. Shavendra Silva. When boasting Silva has forgotten that taking such a position mean, he accepts the position “punishing himself and other war criminals in Sri Lanka is legitimate”tooThe External Affairs Ministry sources said.
Shavendra accepts the position “punishing himself and other war criminals in Sri Lanka is legitimate”
Sri Lanka urged the HRW to push foreign governments to prosecute top LTTE representatives living in their territories. Adele Balasingham lives in London .She is the widow of Anton Balasingham, a Sri Lankan with British citizenship who was the chief political strategist of the Tamil Tigers until he died in 2006.
Adele, an Australian-born nurse, met and married him while he was living in London in the Seventies. She became deeply involved in the Tigers’ cause – ending up as the leader of its women soldiers and nicknamed “Aunty” on the island.
An undated video of Adele Balasingham, showing her in camouflage fatigues and presiding over a parade of female child soldiers, has been circulated to confirm her status as one of the movement’s most influential figures.

Now here is one woman who should be tried for war crimes and crimes against humanity, She trained the female wing of the LTTE terror group the Birds of Freedom. There is footage of her presenting cynaide capsules to the female fighters of the LTTE at their passing out parades. Her late husband was a key figure of the LTTE. It baffles me as to why teh Westminister Demonstrators do not ask for Adele to be tried as she should be held accountable for sending many thousands of young tamil women to their deaths as the trainer of the Birds of Freedom

Tamils want to stand on their feet not want to knee down to racist government.The Srilankan government started their state terrorism and genocide on Tamils since their independent in a very systematic way. Cancellation of citizenship of Tamils who worked on tea estate, Standardization on education which let Tamil students had to get 80 marks on each subject to university; Singhalese student had to get 40 marks to go to university. When Tamils students had peaceful rally Singhalese thugs burnt down Tamil’s library (which was the largest library in Asia) in Jaffna with 90000 books in 1981, in 1883 during the riot in Colombo Singhalese thugs killed 3000 Tamils including children, burnt down their businesses and houses, They never prosecuted a single person. Jewish never resisted. Nazi killed 8 million Jewish. Is Sri Lanka a sovereignty of State? During the Indian peace keeping force (IPKF), Indian army killed many thousand people, no countries prosecuted India, and Indian’s media covered all these killings. During the civil war 10000 Tamils killed by the government forces, They need justice.

SELVA UK / September 21, 2011
This is what actually happened and reported in the paper: "Inner City Press asked the UN to confirm or deny that Holmes relied on the Sri Lankan government's Minister of Relocation to translate, and that when a woman said her son was abducted by the Army, the Sri Lankan government Minister translated that and told Holmes that she had said her son was taken by the Tamil Tigers. No answer."
If a Government Minister would tell a lie like this, imagine what an ordinary Tamil civilian had to say to save his/her life. Sri Lankan government is spending millions of dollars on lobbying, propaganda, gifts, lunch and dinner to journalists and others etc. to promote their lies.
Sri Lanka has even bought out UN members. Otherwise how can they justify sending Nambiar to Sri Lanka to investigate the situation when his brother has been working as a consultant for the Sri Lankan army for the last 5 years.

Kuvera S / September 21, 2011
I am ashamed and disgusted by a Sri Lankan government that has destroyed any semblance of democracy and has clearly committed unspeakable atrocities against the Tamil people of Sri Lanka. To those Tamil people who have suffered – I hope one day you will see that not all Singhalese are such unthinking animals.
Yet I have no time for the self serving terrorists that were the Tigers. Adele Balasingham was one of them. The LTTE murdered many Tamils because if you did not believe in their exact form of nationalism, you were considered a traitor. Remember that those who oppose your oppressors are not necessarily your saviours.
Prabakharan and Rajapakse were both power hungry egomaniacs claiming to be saviours of their people. One is gone and the sooner the other one goes, the better. Then maybe we can sit down return to humanity in Sri Lanka.

Dayabaran Ontario / September 20, 2011
yes, this man Savendra Silava is a maaad foolish .Srilankan forces make the victim drink the urine, eat feces, pork instruments into the anus and private parts, so not only LTTE fighters but all the Tamils and Sinhalease who speak the truth has to wear cyanide capsules to avoid being captured alive.

Mark Anthony Dass / September 20, 2011
The Tamil Tigers and their supporters obscenely cling to the fiction that they are fighting for Tamils and not for themselves.
Yet they have repeatedly sabotaged attempts to resolve Tamil grievances in Sri Lanka – including by murdering the Tamil Sri Lankan Foreign Minister and former Oxford Student Union President Lakshman Kadirgamar, and former Harvard lecturer Dr Neelan Tiruchelvam.
They have also tried to trigger race riots in SL by attacks at the Scared Bo tree and the Temple of the Tooth – both religious and World Heritage sites.
The stories of children (some as young as 12)ripped from their families forcibly conscripted into the frontlines covered by some newspapers here are harrowing.
What is equally chilling is the number of refugee children, brought up in the supposedly democratic and multi-cultural West, who are demanding the creation of a one-party, mono-ethnic state – while routinely labelling anyone not sharing their world view as 'Sinhalese', 'in the pay of the SL Govt' or 'BNP'.
Make no mistake – Tamil Tigers / supporters have NO loyalty to Sri Lanka, Britain or even their own race. They are only interested in their own fanatical beliefs and aims.
And woe betide anyone or anything that gets in their way.

Can you leave this old lady alone please. I am not a big fan of the LTTE. But I don’t understand what is the matter with these people who are supporting the srilankan government on ethnic cleansing of the tamil. Yes the LTTE took their own people hostage but its totally unacceptable for the srilankan government to kills everybody indiscriminately. Still all these big counties like India, china and Russia still supporting with their own interests. The UK and USA not doing enough to bring srilanka for justice because there is no oil on srilanka. There are thousands of people suffering in the hands of the SL forces in their concentrations camps. Nobody taking any firm action. It’s a very sad world.

Us tamils have four fingers directed at us when we point fingers at Sinhalese. In 1971 there were 40,000 Sinhalese in Jaffna district. What happened to them now? We chased away 100,000 Muslims in 24 hours. At least are we happy to reinstate them in their original lands?

WHY SHOULD MAJORITY OF TAMILS IN SRILANKA SHOULD SEEK REFUGE ALL OVER THE WORLD? THIS IS A PROOF OF RISK TO THEIR LIFE IN THAT COUNTRY!MINORITY TAMILS SLAUGHTERED IN SRILANKA THAN SINHALA MAJORITY!A TAMIL PERSON CAN TRAVEL ALL OVER UK WITHOUT CARRYING A PROOF OF IDENTITY BUT CAN ANY TAMILS IN COLOMBO CAN DO THAT? CONTINUOS HARRASMENT AND DISCRIMINATION IS THE RESULT OF THIS REVOLT,STILL NOW NO ONE REALY UNDERSTAND THE BASIC ROOT PROBLEM, UNTIL IT IS PROPERLY ADDRESSED, THE STRUGGLE WILL TAKE DIFFERENT PHASES TO THE CLIMATE OF REACTION MADE!
what will happen when these girls recruited gots into the hands of govt forces? will govt forces take them to rehab center? if so is there any proof those girls caught up by govt were alive? killing of own citizen by air raids and heavy weapons is not justice! continuos indiscrimination and supression is the result of formation of anti govt force!

No mention of this news on the BBC or Channel 4. How come? They don't care that's why, unfortunately they seem to put down the Government of Sri Lanka every chance they get with slight mentions of LTTE atrocities. Amnesty International, the whole lot belong in the same category. That's not fair, Sri Lanka got rid of a cancer that plagued them and their people for over 25 years. Give us a break, we don't have the resources YOU might have, but we sure as hell got the job done. Now give us time to make things right, without tarnishing us and trying to take us and our ways down every chance you get.

Those who called her 'aunty' said so with respect and valued what this lady had to tell them and the motivation she provided. Now those girls who got the cyanide capsule are dead.
This lady and the diaspora tamils who egged the young boys and girls of the Wanni to go to war, are living comfortably in the west and talking about genocide. Ironic. Those who supported the war for 30 years committed genocide. This woman should be prosecuted for crimes against humanity, and the evidence is over wheleming. in the same time this Shavendra and Sri Lankan war criminals should be prosecuted too.!! and that man Sarth Fonseka too.

Dayan JS / September 20, 2011
Why is it that SL cannot lodge a extradition order for this criminal with the British Government? LTTE is banned in the UK and there is ample evidence that this person has engaged in criminal activity in SL and in the UK. Surely there must be a way to institute legal action.

NO! tamil tigers are not terrorist. Mrs Balasingham didnt give cyanide to 10 year old. before you write anything on the internet please find out the correct information. tamil tigers are freedom fighters. why do you think sri lankan government dont let media go through to vanni? its because they dont want the media to know what is really happening there.!!

I WISH TO SAY TO LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENCIES AND LAW MAKERS. MOST OF THE WESTERN NATIONS WEE KEEN IN PROSCRIBING LTTE AS A TERRORIST ORGANIZATION AT THE REQUEST OF SRI LANKA. THIS WAS DONE DURING CEASEFIRE PERIOD WHEN TWO PARTIES WERE NEGOTIATING FOR A SETTLEMENT.
SEE TO YOUR SELF WHAT DAMAGE DID THE SRI LANKAAN GOVT DO TO THE TAMILS. IT WAS A GENOCIDE.
DID THE SRI LANKAN GOVT LISTEN TO WESTERN COUNTIRES' REQUEST FOR A CEASEFIRE OR EVEN TO ALLOW AID AGENCIES. NO. SRI LANKAN GOVT IS BACKED BY IRAN, CHINA, INDIA AND OTHER ROUGUE NATIONS.
IF THESE NATIONS HAD NOT PROSCRIBED LTTE DURING THE CEASEFIRE PERIOD AND GIVEN PRESSURE TO THE SRI LANAKN GOVT TO SEE A POLITICAL SOLUTION, THOUSANS OF TAMILS WOULD NOT HAV DIED IN THE HANDS OF SRI LANKAN ARMY.
ALL BRITAIN COULD DO NOW IS LIFT THE BAN ON LTTE AND PROPOSE A UN SECURITY COUNCIL RESOLUTION BINDING SRI LANKA TO PUT FORWARD A LASTING SOLUTION. IF SRI LANKA IS NOT INCLINED TO DO THAT SEND UN FORCES AS DID IN KOSOVO AND HELP GET TAMIL EELAM.

Why west fear for Sri Lanka see the truth and why they cant punish Sri Lanka?
West have only 20 countries to support but Sri Lanka in UN has 109 countries support Including China, India,Russia. So truth is for global power dont like to punish Sri Lanka for fear of reprisal and they know this is not Afghanistan, or Iraq, They had their last lessons against Vietnam in 197, 50,000 US army personal died. They analysed to invade Sri Lanka, but abandon it because war lords warn at least 500,000 American army people die if invade Sri Lanka, due to the help of Russia, China, Iran, Korea military backings. So Tamils have to find the truth face the truth no EELAM will have , even the Ellan tried but failed only get treatment best thing to share with Sinhalese, My suggestions are that , as I dont want to see any human to suffer.

By the way LTTE is gone and the War is over. Can the Sri Lankans answer these questions?
1) How many civilians died in the final weeks of assault on the LTTE inside the ‘no fire’ zone and what has happened to their corpses?
2) Why were hospitals treating the injured and the sick inside the ‘no fire’ zone repeatedly shelled by the Sri Lankan army and what is the fate of the Tamil doctors who reported this to the global media?
3) What kind of banned weapons did the Sri Lankan forces use in their operations against the LTTE and which governments around the world supplied these to them?
4) Despite repeated official assertions that the ‘war is over’ why is the Sri Lankan government afraid of allowing independent media, humanitarian workers and human rights groups access to war affected areas?
5) Why are the thousands upon thousands of Tamil refugees – Sri Lankan citizens all of them- still being kept behind barbed wires like cattle corralled off before slaughter and why are Tamil youth being abducted from within these camps ?
6) Why are the repeated reports of Tamil women being raped by Sri Lankan army personnel not being investigated?
7) Why are Sri Lankan journalists questioning the conduct of the war being killed, tortured or forced into exile if the government has nothing to hide?
8) How can a chauvinist regime responsible for the worst kind of prejudice and atrocities against its minority population be entrusted with either their immediate rehabilitation

Tamali kariyawasm. / September 21, 2011
It's kind of surprising how the following comments of the post has deviated from commenting on legitimacy of arresting a Terrorist who handed over cyanide capsules to young innocent children to Tamils of Sri Lanka being suppressed by a GOSL and a SLA. If anyone visits these regions after the bloody war that hampered the growth of the nation and the innocent lives in these areas, they would realize the massive effort the GOSL has put in to develop the area. This it self will be sufficient fact to prove that the GOSL is in there with a good heart. Those who support Adel Aunty seem to forget the thousands of innocent lives that were lost due to the terror acts of a terror group lead by a mentally challenged idiot. Adel was part of it. These were war crimes – not when GOSL saved those innocent civilians from the crutches of blood thirsty terrorists.

Tamils unprotected under deteriorating Sri Lanka justice system – international lawyers
Sri Lanka’s judiciary is vulnerable to political interference and counter-terrorism legislation, in particular the emergency regulations, has had a detrimental impact on basic due process guarantees as well as freedom of expression, a high-level delegation of international lawyers say. Following its fact-finding tour, a report by the International Bar Association Human Rights Institute (IBAHRI) says “Sri Lanka’s justice system, legal profession and media are all under grave threat” under the government of President President Mahinda Rajapakse, which enjoys unprecedented popularity amongst Sinhalese. “Some members of Sri Lankan society, particularly those of Tamil ethnicity, are unprotected within the criminal justice system.

Rosy Silva - Swiss / September 21, 2011
When 20,000 Tamils have died in the final onslaught of the civil war, why is the fact the widow of LTTE strategist Anton Balasingham is living in the UK a major story? She has been here for several years and has not taken a public role in politics since her husband's death in 2006.
Now that the war is over in Sri Lanka, the UK and other Western countries must rethink their ban on the LTTE.
The organisation does not pose a military threat, as it has wiped out as a fighting force; it remains however a unifying political force among Tamils around the world, and for the proscription to be lifted would hugely increase Tamils' trust in Western governments and boost future efforts to build peace in Sri Lanka.

democrt / October 21, 2013

Replying to Ruwan R.September 20th 2011 ar 2.23p.m.
The UK and USA not doing enough to bring srilanka for justice.
USA eradicated native people who welcomed them, later calling them as pests. (Imagine that you go today to USA with very advanced unheard of killing machines and kill the Americans calling them pests because you want to posses everything there! That’s how USA was built several hundred years ago.) They captured the unarmed innocnet negro people from Africa and brought them in ship loads, like or even worse than cattle, raped or killed them at will if not used them for slave labour. Now you would like them to come to bring justice to Srilanka. They said that Waduga king was injust and came to do justice with the help of justice seeking Sinhala Radalayas; and once well established, destroyed or enslaved them (=the very Radalayas). In the end all the big families had nothing better than to wash the shoes of small colonial civil servants in order to get recognition from colonial masters. Had to learn English and wear top hats! Our “father of nation” died falling from the back of an ‘English horse’; wearing a funny Top Hat I suppose. In Arab world: in Saudi Arabia, Jordan and central Asian (Usbekistan, Turkemenistan) muslim contries USA-UK-five (anglo-saxion)-eyes support the most despotic rulers. And of course in Israel where 30% of the population are second class citizens. They dont send Navi Pillai for human rights in those countries because in the end its America that pulls the threads to move Pillai and the rest of the NGOs. They send Navi Pillai for you to help justice in Srilanka. Very same Obama received in the White House and thanked Baharain dictator when he killed and imprisoned using the foreign toops (from Saudi Arabia) the people of the majority community that revolted demanding minimum human recognition.
Obama or rather, military industrail complex in USA that employes Obama want only one thing from Srilanka. To use Srilanka in their extensive program of encircling China. They are very upset because silly Sarth Fonseka (silly as a politician) lost, becuase had he won they could have used him ගොනාට අන්දවගෙන in order to use Srilanka to fortify USA position aganist China. They have made friends with English speaking rich bissness class of india who detest China, made friends with Vietnam using their border problem with China and they would love to have Srilanka with Fonseka or UNP to use against China in the future battle for global supremacy. And if UNP or Fonseka falls in Anglo-saxon (five eyes) trap headed by USA they will end up like Noriega, Saddam Hussain or Bin Laden, all of whom that fell in ‘freinds of America trap’. America made freinds with them used them and when they were no longer useful, killed them (Noriega was only prisoned for long year and humilated.) Ruwan seems to want a country of which their politicians decide to go inside another independant country capture its citizens and hold for life to come to Srilanka to do justice!. They go inside Pakistan and kill a person that their politicians suspected (Bin Laden). He was never judged although it was possible judge him. Civilized law, civilized countries do no kill suspects without judging them except in the battle field. Recently they captured a man in Libiya and took to USA. If you apply this rule in Srilanka in a milder form (with my apologies for my Tamil brothers and sisters because this is only a hypothetical counter-fact exameple) Rajapaksha has the right to kill everybody he suspects. (I said ‘in milder form’ becuase Obama is doing it in a different country many thusands of miles away from his boarders whereas Rajapaksha is in a country, within internationally undisputed boarders). Imagine that Rajapaksha suspects that an American has committed an offense aginst Srilanka and he sends soldiers to America to capture that suspect bring him here and imprison for life! America is doing that. America has not recovered from the original cow-boy mentality yet, even if a handsome boy who is working for the military industrial establishment has a Nobel price in his pocket. The power is justice for them with usual decietful behaviour added to that.
They dont give a damn about Tamil peoples rights or human rights. They use it today becuase it is useful to them to for their policy of encircling China. The USA and the world media dominated by UAS system incessantly talked aboout jewish peoples’ right to immigrate from Soviet union and even buying and selling corn or wheat could not be dissociated from that ‘grave’ problem of human rights. Today if a Palastinian whose ancestors have been living in Palastien for 2-3000 years leaves Palastien even for higher education for some years he looses his citizenship in Palastien by Israeli laws and USA give about 6 billion dollars aids to Israel (which is one of the very rich countries) for Israel to be able enforce such human rights. Please Ruwan dont talk about UAS-UK coming to do justice in Srilanka. Did not this tandem violate all the rules and destroy Iraq people in recent past? Dont you feel the suffering of the Iraqi people who are being blown to parts everyday as a result of the activites of these excutors of justice, activites carried out in violation of all international laws and civilized behaviour?
