Sri Lankan security forces have visited houses in Jaffna over the last week, under the pretext of dengue control.
Security forces accompanied public health inspectors as they went door to door in Jaffna, with several villagers expressing fear over the visits.
Jaffna municipal Commissioner Vakeesan, who is responsible for dengue control activities in the North, stated that the military did not have permission to accompany public health officials on their visits.
He would be raising the matter with the appropriate officials to ensure it is stopped, he added.
