The evidence prepared by human rights groups including The International Truth and Justice Project (ITJP) is compelling. Families of the dead and missing deserve answers and justice.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">\u201cIt is not enough to hide behind diplomatic immunity or run away at the first sign of legal challenge. Interpol should issue a red notice for General Jayasuriya\u2019s arrest and the case referred to the International Criminal Court in The Hague. Reconciliation will be a complicated affair but such meaningful action may start a move towards bringing this horrific and bloody chapter in the country\u2019s history to an end,\u201d he further said.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p> [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":22,"featured_media":4678,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[3,2186,1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-181528","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-colombotelegraph","category-featured-news","category-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.3 -
