German Tamils gathered in Düsseldorf to mark the fourth anniversary of the Mullivaikal massacre. Over 2000 Tamils marched through the town centre before congregating outside the local parliament of North-Rhine Westphalia, the most populous state in Germany.

The event, organised by the Tamil Youth Organisation - Germany and the Volksrat der Eelam Tamilen (Country Council of Eelam Tamils), saw speakers from German leftist party Die Linke and Kurdish activists.

We need your support

Sri Lanka is one of the most dangerous places in the world to be a journalist. Tamil journalists are particularly at threat, with at least 41 media workers known to have been killed by the Sri Lankan state or its paramilitaries during and after the armed conflict.

Despite the risks, our team on the ground remain committed to providing detailed and accurate reporting of developments in the Tamil homeland, across the island and around the world, as well as providing expert analysis and insight from the Tamil point of view
