Tamil community appeals for the release of abducted humanitarian aid
workers
The Tamil community from the world over joined a chorus of voices calling
for the immediate release of ten (10) employees of the Tamils
Rehabilitation Organisation (TRO), who were abducted by 'government backed'
paramilitaries on Tuesday, 31 January 2006, in eastern Sri Lanka.
The TRO is a registered including most of the European and Scandinavian
Country as a Non-Governmental Organization (No. L 50706) and is registered
with the Consortium of Humanitarian Agencies (CHA), in Sri Lanka. As of 26
December 2004 TRO has been rendering urgent humanitarian assistance to all
those in the coastal areas of the North-East of the country who have borne
the brunt of the Tsunami disaster.
TRO was originally set up to provide relief, rehabilitation and development
to the war affected people of North-East Sri Lanka. The organization has
been in dedicated service to the people of the region for the last 20 years
and possesses exceptional knowledge of the grassroots reality, culture,
values, and aspirations of the people of the North-East. The organization
has approximately 3,500 local paid personnel across its 10 districts
offices, along with 16 international offices and several hundreds of
thousands of local and international volunteers. Further, TRO has strong
partnership arrangements with key UN and multilateral agencies,
international and local organizations and the Government of Sri Lanka.
Meanwhile a prominent paramilitary’s Official News website, neruppu.com,
has featured a news article that claims the kidnapped were all members of
the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE). The Denmark based website,
operated by Mr. Mathi Kumarathurai, has been long known to be a base for
Sri Lankan paramilitary propaganda. 'The fact the website was able to
publish such an article is clear evidence pointing to the association of
the particular website with the paramilitaries,' a prominent Tamil activist
said. Several Tamil organisations, and the Diaspora Tamil population from
around the world have joined a chorus of voices calling for the Co-Chairs
of the Sri Lankan peace process, International Community and Humanitarian
Organisations to exert maximum pressure on the Danish authorities, to
approach the individuals operating the website and work for the release of
the humanitarian workers.
