Ambassador accepts personalised copy of No Fire Zone documentary for Sri Lanka's president

The Sri Lankan High Commission in London accepted a personalised copy of the Sinhala language version of the, Emmy nominated, No Fire Zone documentary on behalf of Sri Lanka’s president this week.

In his personal message to Maithripala Sirisena, the No Fire Zone director, Callum Macrae, on Wednesday, said,

“The truth is coming out. I appeal to you not to obstruct the process, but to encourage it. To be on the side of truth.”


The No Fire Zone documentary details evidence of war crimes and crimes against humanity committed during the final weeks of Sri Lanka’s war against the liberation Tamil Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE).

The full Sinhala version of the No Fire Zone documentary, alongside the standard versions, can be viewed here.

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
