Sri Lankan army releases land but shows no sign of leaving North-East

 

The Sri Lankan army released a tranche of occupied land in a ceremony held in Jaffna earlier this week, reported a military website.

Approximately 700 acres of land in the Northern Province was released by the armed forces at the ceremony, which was attended by various Sri Lankan government officials and military figures.

 

However, the Commander of Sri Lanka’s Security Force Jaffna Major General N.U.M.M.W. Senanayaka “specified that Army will remain in Jaffna to assist the poor people in any case of emergency and security requirement”.
