On December 20th, construction workers found two human skeletons when digging around the Manthai area of Thirukketheeswaram. The following week, a further four skulls were unearthed.
Last month the Bishop of Mannar called for an international investigation into the mass grave, dismissing any investigations by the Sri Lankan authorities, as lacking credibility.
