  • Under Fire: Persons in Humanitarian Service
    Under Fire: Persons in Humanitarian Service A Preliminary Report on Killings and Disappearances of Persons in Humanitarian Service in Sri Lanka, January 2006 – December 2007 07 March 2008 Law & Society Trust 3 Kynsey Terrace, Colombo 7 [email protected] www.lawandsocietytrust.org CONTENTS 1. Introduction 3 2. Executive Summary 5 3. Table of incidents 9 4. Short summary of each incident and progress of investigations 14 5. Abbreviations used in the report 64 1. INTRODUCTION Since the beginning of 2006, violence related to the conflict has escalated dramatically, and killings and disappearances of civilians have become widespread in Sri Lanka. Internal displacement has also been a serious problem. Government agencies have not been able to provide adequate assistance and protection to civilians. Thus, national and international humanitarian actors have become a crucial life line for thousands of affected people. However, the situation on the ground has not been at all conducive to humanitarian work. Since 2006, numerous people engaged in humanitarian work have been killed and subjected to enforced disappearances. Many more individuals and organizations have been subjected to threats and attacks. Restrictions have been created which make it difficult or, in some cases, impossible to access civilians needing protection and assistance. Obtaining and renewing visas and work permits for expatriate staff of humanitarian agencies has also become extremely difficult. While some incidents such as the killing of 17 ACF staff in August 2006 in Mutur received public attention, many incidents received hardly any coverage in local and international media. Complaints have also been lodged with relevant authorities for a large number of these cases, but there is no available public information about progress made in investigations.
