The ITJP will release a report that expands on a previous study entitled “An Unfinished War:Torture and Sexual Violence in Sri Lanka, 2009-2014,” reports Ceylon Today.
The updated study will exhibit 180 cases of post-war torture and sexual violence in Sri Lanka, including eight accounts that occurred after the presidential elections of Jan 8 2015 and fourteen cases which took place in 2014.
The head of the ITJP Yasmin Sooka, who also co-authored the UN panel of Experts Report into Sri Lanka’s mass atrocities, previously said that sexual violence and torture against Tamils was a “systematic part of policy framework.”
