The regiment, which has been honoured with awards by the president Mahinda Rajapakse, was involved in front line fighting throughout the war, and played an instrumental role in the final “mop-up” operations in Mullivaykal, where Sri Lankan troops are accused of carrying out executions, rapes and other war crimes.
