Swedish police have arrested a man, of both Swedish and Rwandan citizenship, who is accused of involvement in the 1994 Rwandan genocide.
The arrest took place on Thursday, at Bromma Airport, by Stockholm, and is the third such case since a special war crimes commission was initiated.
Chief investigator, Anders Wretling, said,
"We're happy to be able to give a clear signal that Sweden is no safe haven for war criminals,"
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
