Kayts locals protested on Friday, calling for justice for the murdered pregnant woman and an end to the violence that has plagued the Tamil people since the end of the war.
Civil society, students and the business community all participated in the demonstrations, which included a human chain made on the main road and shops and businesses shutting down in solidarity.

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
We need your support in keeping our journalism going. Support our work today.
