Tamil residents in Paravipancham, Kilinochchi protested outside an army camp that had encroached their lands with demands for the complete return of all appropriated land.
Gathered outside the army camp on Monday, the demonstrators called on the occupying army to respond to a memorandum that they had submitted on the 27th June to demand the release of their land.
In response to the Tamil protestors demands, the soldiers said they had communicated the issue to their army officers and district secretary.
The residents called on Sri Lanka’s president, who is due to visit Kilinochchi on the 18th of July, to return all appropriated lands to the Tamil people.
