TORONTO, Dec. 1 /CNW/ - British Channel 4 News reveals a shocking new footage of the alleged massacre of Tamil prisoners, during the final push of the war.
The damning material concerning the behaviour of Sri Lankan government troops in the country's civil war has now emerged.
Channel 4 News Foreign Affairs Correspondent Jonathan Miller said: "The rest of the video is too gruesome to broadcast: women bound, shot dead, undressed; callous comments from onlookers laden with sexual innuendo. Since Channel 4 News received and broadcast the executions video over a year ago we have received hundreds of photographs and many more shocking videos depicting summary executions and rape. We've now sent this five minute 30 second video to the UN panel conveined to determine whether or not there should be an independent international war crimes inquiry."
"The latest development clearly emphasise the urgent need of an Independent International investigation on the War crimes committed in Sri Lanka," says Senthan Nada, the spokesperson for the Coalition to stop the war in Sri Lanka.
