British Tamils in London marched in protest on Saturday against the attacks, intimidation and arrests of Jaffna University students.
 |
Carrying placards and shouting out, "Sri Lankan army - get out of Tamil Eelam", "self-determination - for the Tamil nation", and "Let us remember - our heroes", over 100 British Tamils marched from Temple to Downing St, on a very wet winter's day in London.
 |
Organised, the Tamil Youth Organisation UK (TYO UK), the protest is the latest in a string of protests led by Tamil youth in the North-East and across the world, condemning the attacks and arrests of students marking Maaveerar Naal.

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
