Tamil National Alliance MP and spokesperson, Suresh Premachandran said the UN Human Rights Council resolution addressing accountability in Sri Lanka was not satisfying and called for it to be strengthened, reports the Thinakurral newspaper.
According to Thinakkural, the Jaffna MP met with representatives at the US embassy on the island, demanding an international mechanism that will address accountability and for the subject of demilitarisation to be explicitly mentioned in the draft resolution.
He also highlighted problems of forcible acquisition of land by the Sri Lankan military, calling for an international process that will return land to its original owners.
