    Tamil ‘asylum request’ returnees are considered to have insulted the democratic socialist republic – in the eyes of the military and law enforcement officials.
    The regime, in its own opinion,is humane,just and enforces the Rule of Law,notwithstanding the PTA and non-implementation of the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights.
    But,human rights activists do not agree.
    But the Queen’s judges appear to agree.They could have,at least devised a mechanism of follow-up of returnees but did not.
    Punitive punishment is imposed,for the insult to the regime,in the privacy of the fourth floor,police stations & military camps.
    Vociferous returnees can be,and are, conveniantly made to disappear,and/or recant their earlier complaints/accusations.
    What the CPA,UNHRC & international human rights organisations do not/will not know, wont hurt anyone.
