Students at the University of Jaffna held a demonstration in fron of the university today condemning the shooting of Tamil Nadu protesters in Tuticorin last week. 


Nine people were killed and 65 injured on May 22 after police opened fire at protesters, who had been seeking a ban on Sterlite Industries' copper plant. 
The protesters, who launched their protest many months ago, accuse Sterlite Industries of releasing pollutants from its plants and have been demanding the plant be closed.
