While the dust settles on what has now become a controversial visit to Sri Lanka by the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights Navi Pillay, the government is preparing to take her head on at the UN Human Rights Council which will be meeting for its 24th session in Geneva tomorrow.

Pillay will be making an oral statement on Sri Lanka to the Council on September 25 on the implementation of resolution 22/1 on promoting reconciliation and accountability in Sri Lanka.
