SL police stop Tamil demonstrators from voicing issues to Cameron

Tamil demonstrators protesting to highlight the prevalent disappearances, human rights abuses, on-going militarisation and lack of accountability and justice in the North-East were prevented from voicing their concerns to David Cameron today, as the British Premier met the Chief Minister C.V Wigneswaran in Jaffna.

Protestors faced strong intimidation from the Sri Lankan police as they attempted to stage demonstrations near sites being visited by David Cameron in Jaffna.
